Someone has posted to another forum Lipanoff matrixes and plastic imprints (there was graphite applied on these to make them conductive and then matrixes were created using electroplating). And some copper positives not sure what they were exactly used for. He posted the recut transfer die and one copper positive of the Lanz specimen, which is from same sources as the Paulian obverse die. It seems like that many Lipanoffs are so deceptive because they are recut (often bust and hair) transfer die fakes.</p><p>Of course Liapnoff fakes exist which are completely free hand exist, too</p><p><br /></p><p>Btw: there is a die match (reverse and obverse) to Roman Collector´s example currently for sale at ebay which is NGC slabbed.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.ebay.de/itm/Paulina-with-Maximinus-I-AR-Denarius-Silver-Coin-236-AD-Certified-NGC-XF-EF/174465002811?hash=item289eecad3b:g:lgYAAOSwMjVferQq" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.ebay.de/itm/Paulina-with-Maximinus-I-AR-Denarius-Silver-Coin-236-AD-Certified-NGC-XF-EF/174465002811?hash=item289eecad3b:g:lgYAAOSwMjVferQq" rel="nofollow">https://www.ebay.de/itm/Paulina-with-Maximinus-I-AR-Denarius-Silver-Coin-236-AD-Certified-NGC-XF-EF/174465002811?hash=item289eecad3b:g:lgYAAOSwMjVferQq</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Die match to Roman Collector´s example :</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.ngccoin.com/certlookup/5747005-009/NGCAncients/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.ngccoin.com/certlookup/5747005-009/NGCAncients/" rel="nofollow">https://www.ngccoin.com/certlookup/5747005-009/NGCAncients/</a></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>So you can decide if I am wrong and NGC, too&nbsp; and these coins including the Lanz specimen are Lipanoff fakes from modern dies.</p><p>Or if Lipanoff recut&nbsp; the imprint taken from Lanz specimen and produced recut transfer dies (2 different obverses but position and size and shape of letters and size and position of Paulina are always identical, too identical = recut).</p><p>The question is why had Lipanoff a postive copper imprint of the Lanz obverse?</p><p>For producing a recut transfer die you need an imprint of an authentic specimen.</p><p>To produce modern hand cut dies there is no need for an imprint.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1208221[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1208220[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1208222[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
