Isaac II imitation
« on: December 03, 2013, 07:22:37 am »
I think this is an imitation of an Isaac II trachy because of the style and the irregular flan but I noticed it's quite thick and it looks like there is a not irrivelant level of silver. What do you think about it? Thanks in advance.

Perhaps from the later reign of Isaac II (clicky)? Those flans seem thick, and have the parallelogram shape on the waist. Obverse seems to match too.
