OK, this one is just unser 2mm. It doesn't look like damage. I'll try to get pics. Possible it could be a magicians gimmick coin? One that fits inside another coin or something. It's size is that of a normal 3d though, just under 2 mm thick.

I'll have to check as he has it back. I think its a little thinner still.

Hi there, my friend asked me to check out his 1956 3d coin that has a really thin flan. I looked this up but could only find the thin flan 3d from Gurnsey from 1956. His coin is not the Guernsey one but looks like the normal 1956 3d brass coin but with a thin flan. Anyone seen this coin before? Maybe I didn't search hard enough But all I could find reference to was the Gurnsey variety. Thanks in advance for any information. DrP

What is supposed to be? Potin of some kind? Eppilus? I can't identify them for toffee.

Thanks Paddy. I'm hoping the other one I posted about today isn't a fake either as it was from the same guy. Its still a nice looking coin and has age to it, I'm guessing 500 or 600 AD then I suppose. Not 200BC/AD as I thought.

This roman coin has a head on both sides. Any idea as to what or who the people are. I bought this today on a whim at a fair.

Trying to work out who this is. Any help appreciated. Thanks.

I bought this 'coin' today. Would be worth about 500 quid ... but some **** has turned it into a spoon. Cosimo de Medici III again. 1680 Piastra.

Definitely look like Commodus. Cheers.

Thanks... I'll take a look at some better silver coins of Commodus and compare.

I've had this a few years. It came with a couple of other other silver Denarius coins. Wasn't ably to identify it as some of the legend is missing. Is it from the republic? If anyone can recognise the emperor I'd be grateful. Thanks. 🙂

I got this small Ptolemaic coin recently. I've tried researching it and I think it is Ptolemy VI Philometor or Cleopatra as Isis. Any ideas? Is it Philometor? Is it Cleopatra? Definitely the bust of Isis though I think.

I've just finished watching Medici on Netflix too. Well pleased with it.... even though it's very worn. :-)

Awesome ... thanks. I have some Papal States coins in a folder so I'm pleased with this. :-)

Here it is. 44mm across - its quite large.
