Is it fake? What is it?
« on: January 11, 2021, 03:27:49 pm »
I don't really know who are those coins related to.
I want to know who they are and whether they are a copy or authentic

Both modern cast fakes.  The first is a copper copy of a Ptolemaic silver tetradrachm.  The real coin does not exist in copper and, like the second, shows the soft details of a cast.  The second is a cast of a Macedonian tetradrachm.
