<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 1845315, member: 19463&quot;]This is a coin that should be seen by someone in the know before it is sold.&nbsp; I am surprised at the color since a coin with RSR in exergue would usually have too much silver to take on that color patina.&nbsp; Is it then a barbarous copy in AE of a silver original?&nbsp; The obvious place to have it seen would be the British Museum but I assume the owner skipped reporting the find if it is a UK item.&nbsp; I would love to listen in on the conversation if the coin is shown either to the CNG office or the BM.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>As a rank amateur in Carausius, it strikes me that there are more barbarous or unlisted coins than there are &#039;normal&#039; ones.&nbsp; Drawing the line between different and unofficial is a job for someone who realizes the cash difference that this would make.&nbsp; Is it fake, barbarous or super valuable?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
