*IMITATION OTTOMAN Cedid MahmudiyeThis piece came in a bag of modern Foreign coins - 21 pounds! May be gold inside!!!
The dating did not seem right to me! From the experts at Zeno, I found a similar issue..... This attribution from Zeno:
Imitation of gold cedid mahmudiye (KM, Turkey #645) with distorted inscriptions and fantasy regnal year 78. Made for jewelry purposes throughout the 19th and early 20th century, very likely outside Turkey: similar imitations are met in abundance in South Russia and Ukraine, along the shores of Black and Azov seas, where they were widely used for adorning Gypsy and native Greek women's garments.
So, as you see, it is not exactly a FAKE or a COUNTERFEIT - it is an IMITATION, so the makers could not get into trouble. The regnal years alone would show that the coin was not "real" -
An interesting piece that may turn up from time to time!

009 Cnut the GreatImitation penny of Cnut
Presumably Scandinavian (probably Denmark)
SCBI 15:4291
Malmer 14.266/1337
O: +CNEMNI RECX A:IIL
R: +IOVTIFNEFNDCER
This penny of Cnut, with blundered legends, is presumably a Danish imitation, as it shares a reverse die with SCBI 15:4291, a coin in the Danish national collection. An obverse/reverse die match was sold by Bruun Rasmussen 7/17/2013 (lot 5004).

Not certain but I now believe this to be an imitation, the biggest reason for this is the low weight and thin flan. Does not have the look of a Constantinople minted coin. This coin was found in Cyprus.

"Cast in Gaul" imitation of RIC ROME 415c
This new specimen is an ancient cast of a mint coin, not a mint coin itself. Such lightweight casts (22 mm, 3,49 g) in brass, usually on thin round flans, are what Cohen calls "Cast in Gaul". Specimens in the BM coll. are BMC V pl. 49.3, 50.5-6, and 52.8. They are considerably commoner than the struck originals. "The obverse die of your cast is somewhat unusual, for I only know ONE original from that same die, as against a dozen or so of the casts. The original has the same rev. die too, but that rev. was also used with other obverses so is known to me in numerous specimens, e.g. BM pl. 50.3." (Courtesy of C. Clay)

Divus Claudius, Consecratio, Eagle (Imitation)Hispanic of Gallic illegal mint, ~274-~285. 16 mm, 1.58 g, 180º.
Obverse: DIVO CLAVDIO Radiate bust of Claudius.
Reverse: CONSECRATIO Eagle.
The style is remarkably accurate for a "barbarous" imitation, with legible letters and detailed figures; the small size and weight, however, gave it away. This type is often described as a Hispanic imitation, though they were more likely produced in Gaul. Study of local hoard finds indicates they were introduced in Spain during Aurelian's time and remained in circulation until the end of Probus' reign.Manuel

Indo-Roman imitation (5th century) AE4Obv.: Diademed head of emperor right Rev.: Female figure surrounded by veil? Field: S C? Diameter: 13.92 mm Weight: 1.2 grams
This Indo-Roman imitation, according to Weerakoddy, should be connected to the invasion of Sri Lanka from South India by a certain Pandu who, according to the Mahavamsa, ruled the island from A.D. 433-460. He further suggests that most of the coin hoards from Sri Lanka may represent temple donations and payments made to soldiers during Pandu's reign. The abandoning of these hoards may have been the result of disturbances that accompanied the Sinhala rebellion led by Dhatusena, which ended South Indian rule of the island in A.D. 460. Weerakkody also states that these imitative bronzes have been found in great numbers on the island, often as part of large hoards. Many are in private collections, of unknown provenience, or inadequately published. In general, the coins are very worn, and when their context is known it is often a good deal later than the date that they were struck.
