Found this coin on ebay.  I checked with the fake coins reports and found an obverse die match with this

What do you think?

Looks fake to me.  But your link doesn't seem to work.

This coin was previously sold by apollo_coins. Not the first one resold by this other seller...

Here's a reverse match from fake coins previously sold on ebay, including the one discussed here (I've been collecting images from various fake sellers for this specific series for a few months now)...

Minos:
Thanks from me too!   I always refer to the fakes gallery when I toy with buying something outside my field of interest.
