I was primarily going by the die match between my coin and <a href="https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=5650223" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=5650223" rel="nofollow">this CNG example</a>, which they attribute to the Lombards:</p><p><img src="https://www.acsearch.info/media/images/archive/30/5121/5196082.m.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p>That said, there's something of a style continuum here, from <a href="https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=5650223" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=5650223" rel="nofollow">obvious imitations</a>:</p><p><img src="https://www.acsearch.info/media/images/archive/30/5537/5650223.m.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p>To <a href="https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=3110005" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=3110005" rel="nofollow">less obvious</a> (but I still think clear) imitations:</p><p><img src="https://www.acsearch.info/media/images/archive/83/3010/3110005.m.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p>to my coin, and then to very official looking coins like <a href="https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=3833593" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=3833593" rel="nofollow">this one</a>:</p><p><img src="https://www.acsearch.info/media/images/archive/95/3786/3833593.m.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p>Grierson, in MEC volume 1, notes that it's quite difficult to decide where to draw the line, and I agree.
