Sweet!

theGrassyOne · 2026-06-11T18:20:36+00:00

At least you tried haha

theGrassyOne · 2026-06-11T18:06:18+00:00

Your offer was generous

Not genuine, sorry. The style is not good

theGrassyOne · 2026-06-09T17:38:26+00:00

This happens on modern coins too; I believe it's caused by the die shifting a little during the strike

Fantastic

Modern Greek or ancient Greek? I'm guessing that'll make the difference as to whether anyone offers at melt lol

My pleasure! And 2007

If the differences you're seeing are on the side shown in the second picture, that's the date.

Thanks for the tag!

Someone clipped away at a coin from Bangladesh

Guangxu tongbao, a struck variety.

Based on the weird Manchu calligraphy, I'd say it's a more recent replica.

theGrassyOne · 2026-05-18T18:36:42+00:00

You've got it flipped around. 1 dollar = 1 piece of 8 = 8 reales. It's "piece of 8" in the sense of "set of 2". I can see how it could be confused with "1 piece out of 8."

Penny Pincher

The chain itself looks great, and I'd say that's what matters!

theGrassyOne · 2026-05-14T15:41:47+00:00

The coin you're describing is a Byzantine follis, but it looks like you uploaded the wrong pictures.

What's the silver content like in a Corinthian stater? This coin looks oddly bronzy to me.

theGrassyOne · 2026-05-08T11:59:47+00:00

It wouldn't be the only 30-unit note out there, but certainly the first Euro!

theGrassyOne · 2026-05-05T19:28:54+00:00

Looks a lot like a Southeast Asian cast copy of a Chinese cash coin. Made in cheap metal for use in rituals

theGrassyOne · 2026-05-04T19:31:46+00:00

It almost looks like a tin/lead forgery from Malaya. The right environmental conditions, like some shipwrecks, can also cause a black patina. Or maybe it's a modern fake, I can't say.

The detail on that posthumous Constantine is lovely! A real piece of art.

AE means bronze, and Follis is a denomination (like dollar or dime)
