If you don't know the size of it, it sounds as if you haven't yet bought this piece. It's not allowed to screen purchases on Forum. It's also not allowed to ask questions about a piece in the Fakes section unless you already have some reason to think it is fake (and you say what the reason is).

im sorry, i found this 1 at an swedish ebay like site, i bought it, won for just a couple of hours ago. the seller had tons of bronze coins but this one cought my eye,  the face and the text is rly good, just the backside that is abit messy, but hopefully it will suit fine in my newfound hobbie collection :p and the was no description about size or weight, so its a gamble indeed. i also put up the backside with a bigger picture so u can see better now :P

If you are a new collector, I would recommend shopping here instead of Ebay.  You will not be ripped off and will never have to wonder if the coin is real or not.

I do not see anything that makes me believe that your coin is not real.  Agrippas are not all that uncommon.  I have 2 in my collection.
