<p>[QUOTE="Valentinian, post: 2311094, member: 44316"]I have Lecam's book on late Roman gold "La fin de l'Empire Romaine et le Monnayage or en Italie" and it has 31 examples of this denomination for Julius Nepos. None look much like that one. You were right to note the long neck, which none of his examples have. The coin is of quite small diameter and the genuine examples have lettering much thicker and less delicate. I wonder if Hirsch thought to look in Lecam?</p><p><br /></p><p>In my opinion it is a modern fake.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
