<p>[QUOTE="romismatist, post: 25813594, member: 44106"]In terms of authenticity, the fact that both coins appear to have been "treated" the same way with iron deposits gives me pause. Sure, it's possible that they could have been found together as the Domitian appears a bit more worn on the obverse, but there's still 100 years between the two. The detail on the Caracalla reverse seems a little too clean and both coins seem pressed rather than struck IMHO. </p><p><br /></p><p>Looking at the edges of the coins and knowing their diameters and weights may help further.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
