<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Hobo, post: 536691, member: 11521&quot;]I bought this coin because it has a cow design. (I grew up on a dairy and I like coins with cow designs.)</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I strongly suspect this coin is a fake but I know next to nothing about counterfeit detection of ancient coins. The underlying metal is highly crystalized which makes me think it is not silver. I give this coin a 1% to 2% chance of being genuine. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Can anyone tell me anything about this piece? Is it a fake as I suspect? What coin is it supposed to be?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Thanks in advance. (Sorry for the poor cropping. I need to brush up on cropping coins that are not circular.)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
