My Newest Byzantine Ar Acquisition Heraclius Carthage Half siliqua
« on: February 07, 2018, 06:33:31 pm »
Here is my new Byzantine Ar.  It measures 13.47 mm x 11.29mm.  It weighs 1.0g.  It is a bit heavy due to the black encrustation.

HERACLIUS. 610-641 AD. AR Half Siliqua (0.64 gm).
Carthage mint. D. N. ERACLIO PP AV, crowned facing
bust / Crowned busts of Heraclius Constantine and
Martina. DOC II 233; SB 871

Unfortunately, this is a gross forgery.
Look at the originals:
