<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2254963, member: 19463&quot;]What I see from this chart is there are many rulers and many mints but I see no obvious pattern.&nbsp; There are two kinds of Sasanian fakes.&nbsp; Tourist grade fakes might be of any ruler and might be detected by the gold question.&nbsp; Fakers of Sasanian rarities might see that the best way to replicate the appropriate metal would be to melt or overstrike poor examples of common rulers.&nbsp; A fake Buran on a flan provided by an authentic but junk Xusro II would not be exposed by this test.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
