Looking for help
« on: July 10, 2017, 01:54:01 pm »
Hello everybody,

To be honest I do not know alot about coins, the coin in the picture used to be from my grandfather.
I always liked it and when he passed away I inherited it.

I am looking for some more information about it but since I have no clue where to start it is hard to find something.

Is someone could tell me something about it it would be great!

Who are the persons on the coin?
From what era is the coin?
Is it in good condition?
Is it worth something, for me ofcourse the sentimental value.

Thank you in advance.

Kind regards,

Jeff

If real, I have doubts, this would be from Sybrita

Almost certainly a modern cast reproduction.

Agreed, this is my repro I got from Rhodos 1977:

22 mm, 7.5 g.
