Denarius RRC 279/1
« on: June 06, 2022, 10:15:00 am »
Hello,
this coin looks identical to the other one included in the Fake Coin Report  ( https://www.forumancientcoins.com/fakes/displayimage.php?pid=12823 ) although it has a different flan and is more detailed.
Do you think they are both fake?

What's the basis for your concern? Do you own the coin?  What's the weight?

Simple curiosity, I have seen this same coin in two different auctions (recently concluded) and I have noticed that a very similar coin is included in the Fake Coin Report.

Well, this one from false reports look like vulgar cast and that one from this topic don't :)

But in fact "dies" is quite similar.

The dies look identical.
Could the cast coin have been made from a coin with the same dies?
