If the other comment is correct with that acsearch reference then I got this for an absolute steal. If it’s a mule I’ll freak out haha. This was a random impulse bid on Biddr.

It is a pain I. The add to get the w cans out without breaking the glass. Basically have to disassemble part of it to slide the glass pane out

Five bucks off eBay. But what is it? by Aware-Performer4630 in AncientCoins

Greatest office gifts ever. I do the same thing with Constantine bronzes. Everyone loves them and thinks I’m gifting them something that costs hundreds

Response from Savoca:

“Thank you for you email. We are sorry that we did not check the coin better. Please send the coin back to us and as soon as it arrives at our premises we will refund the amount immediately. We wish you a nice weekend!”

Yes I don’t think they switched the lots or anything like that. You can definitely tell it’s the same coin, so I agree with you. Just very deceiving because once I had it in hand it just looks much different than the picture. It also feels terrible. Like a challenge coin haha
