Fake Julianus?
« on: October 23, 2022, 04:44:40 pm »
Hello. I need a third opinion. I bought this coin a while back from Ebay. I didn't see any reason for to be a fake. A friend told me that this coin is a modern forgery. That's why I need a third opinion. Cheers.

It looks like it might be a genuine coin - but one that was worn and corroded and then was harshly cleaned with chemicals.  But it is hard to tell from the photos.  Do you have a photo of the edges??
