Recommended Posts

Just bought a gold coin that what an antique dealer told me ,not her field of expertise,

dont know if it is real one slightly smaller than 50 eurocents almost the same weight looked at the web they are near ,it must be a giunea, slightly smaller not full center stuck,some line on the edge spiral or going downward,

not in to this kind of collection,very old, just happen I came by into it so, I bougth it even if it is a replica or a fake there is nothing I can do about it,cannot post picture my wife computer is on the shop for repair,

what are the pointers in Identifying the three,fake,replica and real,

compare thier weigth just one of the member advice to hold it in small finger almost not sure exactly near or same weigth as 50 eurocents.

So far with the image size being rather diminutive I notice nothing out of the ordinary for such a piece, so it looks good, and if you paid €35 all the better.
