<p>[QUOTE=&quot;IdesOfMarch01, post: 2116004, member: 39084&quot;]The attribution of RIC Nero 143 appears to be correct, at least in my copy of RIC.</p><p><br /></p><p>I do not believe that this is a fake.&nbsp; (1) The wear, especially on the obverse legend, appears to be genuine.&nbsp; (2) The apparent pitting could easily be due to the cleaning process.&nbsp; (3) The reverse also appears to be normal (but high) wear.&nbsp; (4) If I were going to fake this coin, I would probably make the condition somewhat better than this one.</p><p><br /></p><p>Finally, you should note that there is a HUGE condition difference between this coin and the $11,000 one whose link is posted above.&nbsp; Especially in 12 Caesars coins, a difference of one grade of condition (e.g, EF vs. VF) can make a 10X or more difference in price.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
