<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2774931, member: 19463&quot;]The worst thing about this one to me is the way everything has way too much room around it.&nbsp; Die cutters of the originals designed things as if they were looking at the world through a tube and never showed that wide angle look with margins.&nbsp; Most are off center a bit but perfect ones like the one H8 showed still look crowded.&nbsp; The style just strikes me as &#039;wrong&#039;. </p><p><br /></p><p>Compare to all the ones here:</p><p><a href="https://www.cngcoins.com/Search.aspx?PAGE_NUM=&amp;PAGE=1&amp;TABS_TYPE=3&amp;CONTAINER_TYPE_ID=1&amp;IS_ADVANCED=1&amp;ITEM_DESC=tetradrachm+Katane%2C+Sicily&amp;ITEM_IS_SOLD=1&amp;SEARCH_IN_CONTAINER_TYPE_ID_1=1&amp;SEARCH_IN_CONTAINER_TYPE_ID_3=1&amp;SEARCH_IN_CONTAINER_TYPE_ID_2=1&amp;SEARCH_IN_CONTAINER_TYPE_ID_4=1" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.cngcoins.com/Search.aspx?PAGE_NUM=&amp;PAGE=1&amp;TABS_TYPE=3&amp;CONTAINER_TYPE_ID=1&amp;IS_ADVANCED=1&amp;ITEM_DESC=tetradrachm+Katane%2C+Sicily&amp;ITEM_IS_SOLD=1&amp;SEARCH_IN_CONTAINER_TYPE_ID_1=1&amp;SEARCH_IN_CONTAINER_TYPE_ID_3=1&amp;SEARCH_IN_CONTAINER_TYPE_ID_2=1&amp;SEARCH_IN_CONTAINER_TYPE_ID_4=1" rel="nofollow">https://www.cngcoins.com/Search.aspx?PAGE_NUM=&amp;PAGE=1&amp;TABS_TYPE=3&amp;CONTAINER_TYPE_ID=1&amp;IS_ADVANCED=1&amp;ITEM_DESC=tetradrachm+Katane,+Sicily&amp;ITEM_IS_SOLD=1&amp;SEARCH_IN_CONTAINER_TYPE_ID_1=1&amp;SEARCH_IN_CONTAINER_TYPE_ID_3=1&amp;SEARCH_IN_CONTAINER_TYPE_ID_2=1&amp;SEARCH_IN_CONTAINER_TYPE_ID_4=1</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Count the coins with &#039;boardwalk margins.&nbsp;&nbsp; I suspect you could research the fake databases and find a name of the modern engraver.&nbsp; Again, as always, this is not the place to ask about such a coin.&nbsp; If genuine, it is a 5 digit coin.&nbsp; You should not throw it away based on what some old guy who has touched fewer five digit coins than he has fingers tells you online.&nbsp; You could invest $50 in a certificate that I am rather certain would be a waste of money but probably is better than taking a vote here when it comes to finding the correct answer.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
