<p>[QUOTE="GinoLR, post: 8278335, member: 128351"]Because it is not sharp at all, especially the reverse which is a poorly designed imitation of a Messana (in Sicily) reverse of the 5th c. BC, while the obverse imitates the jugate busts of Antiochos VIII and Cleopatra Thea (Syria, 2nd c. BC), but in a barbaric style (and with no eyes !!!). A real Roman or Greek coin does not look like this ![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
