Just one of the ubiquitous modern replicas... Not even good enough to fool anyone except an idiot.

That's very naughty. As you say, a modern replica 'aged'. It's not even a proper George V penny altered (e.g. 1935) which people are willing to pay up to £200 for in order to fill a gap.

And the moron even advertises it as Queen Victoria !

I'm more amused by what is allegedly a bronze penny having a fineness of .5 🤣

I am not sure there are any experts specifically on Victorian penny forgeries, but there are lots of Penny experts here, who can spot a forgery a mile off!

Are you looking at contemporary forgeries (I am not aware there are many of those), or the ubiquitous modern fakes?

I think a new thread would be best.

None of what you just said makes sense now as I split the post you responded to into a new topic, here:

Now I understand how that feature works!
