Help coin identification
« on: November 03, 2021, 04:53:47 pm »
Hello. I recently bought this coin. In the description stand that it is a coin from Manuel II Palaiológos. I couldn't find anything similar. Could you please help me and gine me your opinions?

I am afraid that this appears to be a modern fantasy piece.

Neither the design nor the fabric (the shape, texture and quality of the metal) are consistent with a Byzantine, or indeed ancient coin.
