<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1326167, member: 26302&quot;]As further clarification as to why he was able to determine it was a fourree, these silver coins were not silvered like later Roman coins were, so the silvering coming off the core could not be that, so it had to be a fourree. Also, there are no accounts I have read of official mints making these, like some other issues sometimes, so the fourree would be one from a private mint. </p><p><br /></p><p>I just wanted to add verbage to Bill&#039;s perfect answer, since sometimes people ask HOW an expert knows something. </p><p><br /></p><p>Nice style for a fourree, though. Except for the silver coming off, very pleasing.</p><p><br /></p><p>Chris[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
