<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Al Kowsky, post: 7621167, member: 97383&quot;]Shogun, The two links you posted of Macrinus are certainly billon &amp; have a silver content of less than 20%. A long time ago I scored a tet of Macrinus that actually looks like high grade silver, see photo below. I&#039;m sure this coin is billon too although it may have gone through a reverse plating process that makes it look like silver.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1311483[/ATTACH] </p><p><b>Cyrrhestica-Berroea, Macrinus, AD 217-218, Billon Tetradrachm: 14.80 gm, 26 mm, 6 h.
