I checked the fake coin reports on Forvm and don't see this one listed - at first glance it seems OK to me with the right weight and size 3.20g & 19mm but I now see some small metal deposits to the left of the bust and on the reverse - hopefully not a sign of casting. Any help with a proper attribution would be much appreciated!</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]524328[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]524329[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
