<p>[QUOTE=&quot;myntsamlaren, post: 337382, member: 12300&quot;]Thanks for the explanation &amp; correction. I was convinced it wasn&#039;t gold &amp; hence a forgery since all comments I got here and elsewhere indicated it wasn&#039;t genuine, so I allowed him to do whatever he wanted until he said he was sure it was gold. Now that I know it is gold, I&#039;m not sure anymore if it is genuine, so back to square one! </p><p><br /></p><p>Some mentioned it is also too large/heavy to be roman/greek.. so why would a forgerer invest in an exceptionally large GOLD planchet &amp; make an historically &amp; numismatically incorrect forgery? Seems illogical to me.. *edit*: reading the above line which I wrote moment earlier, I just realized that perhaps that was the exact intent: confuse future owners? so is then quite likely a forgery since all seem to agree on that.</p><p><br /></p><p>Ah well, I&#039;m relieved that at least it was gold &amp; there&#039;s some worth in that, so perhaps I will consider selling to the goldsmith after all for $250 &amp; let him worry about who made this coin - else keep it for the sake of the gold only, not as a coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
