Vespasian Aureus
« on: November 10, 2004, 11:32:42 am »
This Vespasian aureus is being sold as a possible counterfeit and the seller describes as as being "gold to the best of my knowledge.

It look as though it is based on on the same dies as a fake denarius in the Fake Boards made in the guise of RIC 96.

Obv: IMP CAESAR VESPASIANVS AVG, Laureate head right
Rev: COS VII, Bull right, pawing the ground as in preparation for a charge.
Ref: RIC 96
