<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Victor_Clark, post: 26233068, member: 10613&quot;]Also, how is coin a cast with a test cut? The test cut would have had to been made after casting. The eye doesn&#039;t look right...what? So now it is not a cast of an authentic coin; but rather an engraver made a fake die with a wonky eye and struck a coin (before or after test cutting) and then decided to start casting examples rarther than striking them.</p><p><br /></p><p>Weights fluctuate for ancients coins. These coins were not weighed individually but rather they were struck at a certain amount per pound of metal. Though they they achieved remarkably consistent results, some coin will be over weight and some under weight.</p><p><br /></p><p>Having said all that I would not offer my opinion on authenticity (especially from a photo alone) as this type is outside my wheelhouse.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
