[QUOTE="NJM Ancients, post: 1710266, member: 51464"][COLOR=#333333][FONT=lucida grande] I really don't like what I'm seeing here, on this coin surfaces. Marked by the arrows those areas are MOLTEN LUMPS of SILVER? TIN/LEAD combination. This coin is on auction on EBay at this moment, bids are low but, I have serious doubts about the MOLTEN LUMPS/BEADS on this coin, the 2 on the obverse are very obvious, where the beaded border cuts off, looks like they DRIPPED in the mold. The BEAD on the Horses ARSE looks like its taking a dump. There are many other FLAGS, overheated metal that sank, like the POCK MARKS. A struck coin is forced to distribute the metal almost equally. Im sure he would call this EROSION, I'd don't buy that. Check out the confusing title..." 1/5 silber " ok, 1 part silver? so what are the other 4 parts? He doesn't actually call it " Ancient " but lists it in " Ancients Coins " he does say " 323-315 BC " I believe this coin to be a CAST FAKE....the seller has a great reputation but, as we all know, when times are tough, temptation is at it's highest!!!
