Mohawk Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Well.....the only one I current have a chance in Hades of helping with at all is marked copy, so we know all we need to know there! I hope another member can help with the other coin....I'm curious to know what's up with it just for the knowledge! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Bob Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 The one on the left is a Mark Antony legion denarius- looks like it says number VIII. I do not know nearly.enough about these to determine if it is genuine. If it is the blue color that the picture suggests, I would guess fake, since the genuine article is silver.

JKK Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 The left one is definitely fake, and a very poor one at that. Roman denarii just never look like that. It's too circular, the strike is too flat, it's too perfectly centered, the letters are too clear and wide yet mushy. The copy at right actually has a little more of the authentic look in its strike, though not much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
