>>20874338Fakes are very scary in pics at first, but once you have the stuff in hand it's very easy to spot, and the more you deal with coins, the easier it gets.
>as far as I looked on the internet, only exists in the archives of the BnF in two specimens, even contacted them about it, not much more info.You'll have surprises you couldn't imagine if you continue in your path. I've got several coins from my ebay slurps who ended up in museums (Copenhagen, Vilnus,..).
Some who get used as the new tag for a coin in catalogue. Here a story from last week. While doing some clean up, i found back a lot of old vatican tiny copper coins i got back in January for 30 bux but couldn't be bothered identifying the most damaged ones.
I decided to give it a second try, but one of which was so crappy and so tiny i was tempted to bin it. But by chance i found a Vatican catalogue "Corpus Italiarum Whateverum vol XXXVII" and finally found a ref. No idea how to price it, there is no examplar on sale anywhere in the world, so as a joke i put a 300€ pricetag. I shit you not, within few hours an american specialist bought it. Pic rel. Half a gram of copper. 300€.
