Fake?
« on: September 28, 2022, 08:33:46 am »
Hello everyone with my first post.
I have a question about the originality of this follis Justinian the Great. Can you help me?
It looks a bit strange in my opinion.
Regards
Prem

Looks quite authentic. Someone apparently warmed up this coin a lot in order to get rid of loose chloride greens. But this is only my opinion.

I see no reason to suspect it and would be surprised to learn it is fake.
