<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Taphoi, post: 3533575, member: 103779&quot;]The Fake Coin Report coin is close to being a die match for my coin, although the flans are different shapes and mine has more wear and surface damage and is radically lighter. There are flan cracks in both cases and what looks like hammering flow near the left edge of the reverse of the Fake Coin Report item. So is the hypothesis that somebody is hammering these from fake dies and wearing and damaging some and aging them and tinting them for patina? Or is there a simpler explanation?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
