Fake Coins and Notorious Fake Sellers / Re: Very archaic drachm - but also authentic?

Could you please provide the picture of the auction house of your coin to compare the reverse die, I think I saw it listed on bidder and it looked strange but I can not find it in my fake folder, it might be there but I do not know how I named it if it is there.
The weights and sizes are comparable too and they were all fantasy types (they do not exist like this in silver) so no references were given.
Rupert´s one male head (possibly with tuna below but off flan) 14 mm, 4.42 g
I do not like it the style and the reverse die could be the same as on one of these fakes, the style of yours would fit to this fakes, too.

Ruperts one male head (possibly with tuna below) 14 mm, 4.42 g
Warrior with bow and arrow 4,6 gr Diameter: 14,3 mm (imitating Kyzikos)
Male head with tuna below 5.2 gr Diameter: 15.3 mm (imitating Kyzikos)
Warrior with tuna at back 4,5gr Diameter: 13,3 mm (imitating Kyzikos)
Ba'al-Arwad 4,2 gr Diameter: 13,5 mm (imitating Arados)
It seems like the last three share the same reverse die but one is imitating Kyzikos and the other one Arados, so die links between them is impossible and condemning.
