Honorius solidus (RIC 1206)

(1/2) > >>

Fulvio V:
Hello,
Can I please have your opinion about the authenticity of this solidus?

diameter: 21 mm
weight: 4.41g

Thank you

djmacdo:
What makes you suspect it is false?

Fulvio V:
I have no particular suspicions about this coin, I was simply asking for an opinion.
However, I now realize that the regulation of this section doesn't  allow it. Excuse me.

marandnumiz:
As a follow up, the solidus in question appears to have been withdrawn from a current auction. If because it a fake, then it is a very dangerous one!

Hydatius:
I seriously doubt it is fake. I see no obvious signs of forgery and the small laminations would be pretty hard to reproduce.
