  1. To sell a fake for 110,000 Euros, shows that there are collectors who do not study what an ancient coin is. Incredible. And she wouldn't be the only one.
  2. The analysis I did, is not just with the tetradrachm on Hirmer, the photo below, comparison with a tetradrachm in Boston. In addition to the eagle's tail, it shows the lack of the end of the hare's hind legs.Plus fractures on the edges, typical of a coin minted with a hydraulic press and not hammered.

La mia opinione che si tratti di un falso moderno, è supportata dai confronti che ho analizzato. Vedi foto sotto, un confronto con un tetradramma di Akragas, sicuramente autentico, dal libro di Hirmer.
