[QUOTE="Lolli, post: 3565074, member: 96900"]I never said the coin must be fake but that there is a high chance if all coins sold at auction have same flan shape, centering and wear. It can of course happen that an authentic coin of this issue has, even if very unlikely same or very similar flan shape + centering + wear. This is why I asked how the edge looks like to be sure if it is one of the cast fakes or not. To Paduan, Peus wrote that their die match is a paduan, (which seems to be wrong), the Peus piece seems to be perfectly authentic and no Paduan as written in discription but it shows well that some cast fakes were sold as authentic and authentic coins can be condemned by "Experts" of auction houses. 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 [url]https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=768468[/url] I have verified if Peus is right and they were wrong so I already posted in previous post that the coin was condemned "wrongly as Cavino" by Peus. It is about the coin not the seller Joe always says so what is wrong about it is about the coin not the owner or pedigree?
