<p>[QUOTE=&quot;POCAS, post: 3309701, member: 98157&quot;]Here is an denarius of augustus I bought recently from a reputable dealer. Weight is 3.52grams</p><p><br /></p><p>First, the coin did not ring like silver when dropped, and when I compared to sound it made to my other denarius, it did make different sound . it may be crystallized, but I am not sure.</p><p><br /></p><p>I am also suspicious that it can be tooled. especially hair part.</p><p><br /></p><p>And there is banker&#039;s mark on both side, I think mark on obverse is Ok, but F mark on reverse is not familiar to me. I have not seen that type of banker&#039;s mark before.</p><p><br /></p><p>The diameter and weight, the maximum diameter is 22mm and weight is 3.52g. Is not it a little bit low weight and wide flan for augustus denarius?</p><p><br /></p><p>And the last, How do you think about appearance? I mean, can you sure its authenticity when you see it first time? I think potrait and letter is too sharp.</p><p><br /></p><p>Any comment can help me. Thank you.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
