[QUOTE="Justin Lee, post: 3191837, member: 87404"]I'm curious what era the string appears to be? Does it look WWI? WWII? 1990's? If the latter, I'd consider what [USER=79017]@Andres2[/USER] suggested. Here's a Valerian Alexandrian tetradrachm I got a couple weeks ago... At almost 23mm, it's bigger than the others I have so was a bit of a surprise when I got it in hand (collage is of seller's photos--I have yet to photo this one).
