The obverse of Christodoulos #521, the reverse of #520 perhaps?
I think Ed has nailed it in this assessment. The veil and ear of Arsinoe have a number of distinctive characteristics that match exactly that of
obverse Christodoulos #521. The finer detail can similarly be mapped with high confidence to the
Christodoulos obverse #521. The same can be said of the distinctive elements of the termination of the
cornucopia, the grapes, the form and width of the diadem/fillet and its terminations and the placement of
legend letters which map exactly to
reverse Christodoulos # 520.
It is interesting to note that what Hess-Divo describe as a diadem around the
cornucopia is described as a
fillet by others. Yet on all but the Hess-Divo example it is actually a broad band of material resembling a diadem, whereas on the Hess-Divo coin it is a thin string like affair resembling a
fillet. Mixed nomenclature is not the problem. Rather, that the Hess-Divo coin bears a diadem/fillet of a
type and
style that is anomalous in comparison to all authentic
Ptolemaic gold issues of the
type bearing a
cornucopia (or two) bound with a diadem/fillet (refer to the GNG Mnaieion posted above to see the difference in this design element). This is yet another pointer to fakery.
There is no doubt in my mind that this coin is from the same
Christodoulos dies noted by Ed.
The 3.6% discrepancy to the gold
weight standard, coupled with the fact that the single
cornucopia is unknown in authentic coins with the Arsinoe
obverse are further condemnatory facts.
The
weight of evidence is that this coin is most likely a
fake.
Others may disagree, but my confidence in this assessment is as close to the 100% level as one can get without physical
side by
side comparison of the coin with an authentic example. This is far from the level where I could give it the benefit of the doubt.
