<p>[QUOTE="Bing, post: 2085631, member: 44132"]I picked up this coin a while back, so it's not exactly new. However, once I had it in hand, I think I found a die match on ForgeryNetwork.com. I contacted the seller and told him my concerns, and that I wished to discuss it with him. But before I knew it, he issued a refund to my Pay Pal account with no indication he wants the coin returned. This makes me feel all the more that I am probably correct about it's authenticity. What is scary is that even in hand the coin looks and feels right. The weight and measurements are right. The flan is right with no seam. Here is the coin in question:</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]389294[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]389295[/ATTACH]</p><p>L JULIUS BURSIO</p><p>AR Denarius</p><p>OBV: Winged head of Genius or Apollo Vejovis right, control-mark (mask of Silenos) & trident behind</p><p>REV: Victory in quadriga right holding wreath, L IVLI BVRSIO in ex.</p><p>Struck at Rome, 85 BC</p><p>3.89g, 18mm</p><p>Syd 728, Cr352/1a</p><p><br /></p><p>And here is the link to the coins on Forgery Network:</p><p><a href="http://forgerynetwork.com/asset.aspx?mode=6Q/zOXMHeZ0=&id=laPN0iNCLis=" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://forgerynetwork.com/asset.aspx?mode=6Q/zOXMHeZ0=&id=laPN0iNCLis=" rel="nofollow">http://forgerynetwork.com/asset.aspx?mode=6Q/zOXMHeZ0=&id=laPN0iNCLis=</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Your opinions are appreciated.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
