<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Insider, post: 2895235, member: 24314&quot;]It is a good bet that some Eid Mar coins in the market are not genuine.&nbsp; On a coin such as this, the microscopic characteristics, fabric, and analysis of the alloy for these as well as dies should have already been mapped out by specialists.&nbsp; Matching a die on an ancient alone, is not good enough anymore.&nbsp; In addition to a chemical analysis, every piece should be checked for matching marks and then determine if they are on the 100% genuine coins from long-held collections.&nbsp; I&#039;ll bet this was never done. </p><p><br /></p><p>You all must know that the technology to successfully duplicate the dies of these pieces was around in the 1980&#039;s.&nbsp; Who knows what can be produced almost twenty years later!&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Anyone guess what these were selling for (low grade) in the late 1960&#039;s?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
