Dear
Mac,
I
had just seen a picture of one of these in a small group lot in a public
auction, but after scanning through my browser
history just now, I am unable to find where I saw it... I am thinking the coin was mixed with some miscellaneous
Roman imperials and was probably described as a fantasy issue or something to that effect. It certainly looks like a Renaissance creation to me.
Sorry I am not able to
help more. It bothers me that I can't remember which
auction house
had offered it. I can even picture how the coin,
obverse side up, was lying on top of the other coins, on the left
side!
Best regards,
