<p>[QUOTE=&quot;tenacious, post: 518721, member: 14553&quot;]I was concerned at first that Randy&#039;s Alexander might be a fake. Although it&#039;s in the later Macedonian style, there are some things that on first sight just look &quot;off&quot;.</p><p><br /></p><p>In my defense, one response on CoinForgeryDiscussionList was that it was a fake. And when Randy posted on <a href="http://www.forumancientcoins.com/board/index.php?topic=49876.0" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.forumancientcoins.com/board/index.php?topic=49876.0" rel="nofollow">Forvm Ancient Coins</a>, Lloyd who is very knowledgeable about Alexanders, had concerns <i>at first.</i> And another poster suggested that it may be Paeonian made.&nbsp; I also talked to a couple other collectors off forum and they had the same response, concern at first but then thought it genuine.</p><p><br /></p><p>My point is that <i>at first look</i>, it looks a little &quot;off&quot; and causes concern. But then everyone agrees that it is genuine.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I told Randy in a PM that I apologize for any alarm I may have caused. But I would rather say something and be wrong than not say something when I should have.</p><p><br /></p><p>I said that if anyone in the future doubts his coin, he can tell them, &quot;Yeah, yeah. I&#039;ve been through that before. It&#039;s genuine.&quot;&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Randy jokingly suggested that maybe the engraver got into the strong wine before work. Maybe that is not far from the truth.&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I hope you are joking. I like to see them! I&#039;m just learning to take decent coin pictures so I will post some in the near future.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
