<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 7580157, member: 19463"]There seems to be good money in selling fourrees of every type as possibly or definitely from the Emergency usually by sellers who have never heard of Piraeus. I might not be expert on which styles qualify and which do not. I know with no doubt that mine is not (style too early). I found it interesting because it weighs 16.5g which would fool people weighing the coins unless it struck them as strange that the thing is several millimeters greater in diameter than your average Classical owl. I paid too much to a big name seller now out of business (no tears lost here).</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1306413[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>BTW, Sev, I am glad to see that your SA dupondius is still wearing a mask even though some governments are loosening restrictions on coin purse gatherings under a denarius in value. It is a little known fact that bronze coins are effectively protected from bronze disease by certified masks. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie93" alt=":troll:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
