<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2807730, member: 19463&quot;]The style of these makes me think of Slavei, the famous Bulgarian faker.&nbsp; While the reverse of the Apollo really looks like his, the obverse is not his Pescennius.&nbsp; Mules exist and I can not ID the intended ruler.&nbsp; The Otacilia should be larger if it were the antoninianus but Slavei made a set of the very rare last denarii.&nbsp; Otacilia antoniniani should have a crescent under the bust so this appears to have been a denarius attempt. I don&#039;t own the Otacilia but suspect she would fit my group shot down on the bottom row with Decius and Herennia.&nbsp; The rug photo makes me wonder if these may be casts of the original struck fakes.&nbsp; It is hard to tell if the unsharpness is coin or photo.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://www.forumancientcoins.com/dougsmith/wslgroup.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
