<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ian, post: 81165, member: 283&quot;]The ones you have just shown are very obviously cast fakes / reproductions, but the problem with that is that they have been cast with the same marking. That means the host coin that they have been copied from had such a mark on it. N&#039;est ce pas? You just don&#039;t get `pits&#039;&nbsp;&nbsp; appearing in the same location coin to coin with casts.</p><p><br /></p><p>When compared to the image shown in your first post, they are definitely `fuzzy&#039; in definition in comparison to it.&nbsp; For a start, the mark on it&nbsp; (the original ) when compared to the rest of its surface is to my mind too well defined to be typical cast `pitting&#039;. Additionally, certain elements of the lettering on it are also far better defined than those of your latest post. </p><p><br /></p><p>My conclusion? you can never be sure about anything from a low definition photo BUT just maybe the one shown in the first post is the `host&#039; coin that the rest have been copied from. Then again, maybe they are all fakes. I&#039;m not so sure about that though. I&#039;m still less than convinced that the image which appears in your first post is that of a fake.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
