<p>[QUOTE=&quot;socaldsal, post: 1013648, member: 27224&quot;]Agreed.&nbsp; They look off, and the identical flan is another +1. If you are feeling brave you can test out the metallic content with an acid test, the one I have turns silver a nice blue on my rubbing stone.&nbsp; Hopefully they REALLY are silver, and that what they&#039;re worth is close to spot.&nbsp; It&#039;s better to know in the end right?&nbsp; I&#039;ve seen these in Nickel silver aka &quot;German silver&quot;, tin, aluminum layered on top of lead, steel, etc.&nbsp; When I first got in to Roman coins, I don&#039;t know how many times I&#039;ve been burned due to high enthusiasm.&nbsp; My fault, my education.&nbsp; FWIW, those coins would be nice educational pieces to get younger folks motivated.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
