http://www.coinarchives.com/a/lotviewer.php?LotID=88489&AucID=94&Lot=371
The Gorny coin looks like the authentic host for the ebay cast
fake crappie. The Gorny coin is much more detailed, look at the elephant's
right rear/front legs, the snake's head/body, the ax handle, the whole
lituus,etc. The Gorny host lacks the little casting pearls on the reverse of
the ebay cast fake. Forgery Type: cast |
