<p>[QUOTE=&quot;kevin McGonigal, post: 3185140, member: 72790&quot;]In my opinion they are both genuine ancients and both plated coins. From their appearance they both circulated for a while before the cores became exposed. As far as I am concerned, having fourees in one&#039;s collection is a legitimate way of showing how coins were made, counterfeited and circulated. Though discounted in the market place, both then and now, they are often the only affordable way of acquiring otherwise very expensive coins and in handling them you are handling the same objects untold numbers of people in ancient Syria and Ptolemaic Egypt did. They are an authentic addition to anyone&#039;s collection and I have no difficulty in in including such coins in my collection.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
