<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2309160, member: 19463&quot;]You can not just copy the details for a coin and use it for your ID.&nbsp; I really doubt your coin weighs 18.90g.&nbsp; That is the one from acsearch.&nbsp; The fabric of the edges makes me suspect yours might be an &#039;as&#039; or 1/4 of a sestertius and with that chunk missing might weigh more like 7g.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Sestertii of Philip tend to have a more squared edge and often have a side with a straight edge like it was cut off.&nbsp; Asses often have more of a taper like yours.&nbsp; You need to weigh yours.&nbsp; It is hard to tell scale from a photo. </p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=1822383" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=1822383" rel="nofollow">http://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=1822383</a></p><p><br /></p><p>The one in the link is listed as VF which I think is a bit high for the wear it shows.&nbsp; Yours is closer to VG on the obverse but the reverse might be better.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
