Hi. Hope all are safe and well and holding up well while holing-up.

If.you are like me you may be using the extra time to enjoy the hobby. Although lately for me it's more like using the hobby to pass the time! For example I'm going through boxes of coins that I bought, and put aside to "do more research " at a latter time. This coin is part of a collection i purchased more than a decade ago and b4 that was last sold in the 1930s.

Does anybody recognize this as a legit issue or is it a fantasy? Ancients are not my strong point but this one just appeared off... Thank you in advance for your input

    I know nothing about this issue but the coin in question screams "cast fake".

    The notes include "contemp forgery?"
