<p>[QUOTE="Drusus, post: 667076, member: 6370"]The way I see it is there is one shield on both coins. They both have two fields that have bars running horizontally. Its hard to make out but I am positive there is an eagle in the top right of the OP coin. Although I rounded the head off a bit, it is actually hitting the top border of the shield giving the eagle a flat head like the Vcoin version. The strike is way off thus it cuts the lower right bars off and cuts of the lower part of the bottom left eagle...but I clearly see the head and wings of that eagle and the full silhouette of the top right eagle (its VERY worn so its hard to make out but I am positive there are two eagles). Although the inscription looks a bit like S6...I think its SG...There is something before the S but I cant make that out.</p><p> </p><p>Also, the OP coin does not have the arch that is OVER the lower eagles head like the Vcoin example though it does appear to break the center line with a small arc like the vcoins example does. </p><p> </p><p>So its NOT the same coin...its a slight variation of the same design for the same ruler...
