[QUOTE="Orange Julius, post: 3291034, member: 77226"]I didn't look too deeply into it because I'd bought the coin many months before cheaply and had only just gotten around to attributing it... I wasn't totally convinced it was fake at the time because the flan shapes were different on coins even if the devices on the obverses and reverses were identical. In my searching before posting on Forvm... I couldn't find any year 2 "over the shoulder" Eagle tetradrachms for Valerian other than the suspected forgeries. Anyway, it's worth some more research... using previous posts as a starting point. Sorry I feel like I derailed a good party... Edit: After refreshing my memory a bit... it seems there was never a definitive condemnation in either thread but everyone felt there was a likelihood they were modern.[/QUOTE]
