First nice find :icon_thumleft: i re-sized the first picture a lot easier to see it, so it does not take up the entire screen , i can see parts that look to be gold but it is blackened bronze there is one for sale on e-bay ill include the link. I see no reason for it not to be real . DD60 :thumbsup:

Thanks for the comments! And thanks for resizing.

Someone told me not to do any "restoring" as it might hurt the value as some want the original "patina" or whatever....do you agree?

thanks for the info......someone said that there are replicas...otherwise a coin like this "might" be in a museum. I know they have been making fakes forever on lots of things so, Im just trying to figure out if this is the real deal or not

thanks again
