[QUOTE="Lolli, post: 3564128, member: 96900"]Is it for sure that the Vespasianus is authentic ? Surface does not look good and there seem to be very similar mosts likely identical casting twins (they have better details). How does edge look and what s the weight? There are casting twins with same centering and same wear and the Vespasianus has no new details which are not already on the other cast fakes but your coin has weaker details. One of the twins can be of course the authentic mother, but the authentic mother should have best and sharpest details. [url]https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=3644731[/url] [url]https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=768468[/url] (same coin as link 2) [url]https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=362447[/url] [url]https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=281485[/url] [url]https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=378215[/url] I would be surprised if your coin would be authentic but you never know and I could be wrong too and the coin authentic. On obverse strong wear on ES of Caesar and dotted border starting at N of (Vespasian) stopping at OS of COSIII. On reverse most wear on top on legend fides there especially the S ! Same start of dotted border at about P of IMP to AV of AVG. At AVG the planchet seems to be not perfectly round. The funny thing is that Peus thought that their die match and twins is a Cavino forgery. Maybe anyone want to check if they are right. Italien Padua, Republik Bronzemedaille (16. Jhdt.) in Form eines Sesterz, auf den römischen Kaiser Vespasianus, 69-79. Kopf r. / Titus und Domitianus mit Speer und Parazonium stehen sich gegenüber. Lawrence - Cavino - RIC 413 Sehr schön[/QUOTE]
