The shield and words on the existing coin are the same, but the branches around the shield look different. Is this the same coin?
existing coin: http://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces76712.html
Thank you. Does that mean that my coin is the same as the Numista entry and that the Numista picture is a different version? How much variation is permissible before they are no longer considered the same?
Thanks!
Thanks. Are there clues that I can look for to distinguish a hammered coin from it's more modern counterparts, or is the answer just knowing what level of development the coinage industry of a country had reached by a certain time?
Is there any value to adding additional pictures to the coin page?
Sure its always good to add the variations, you can add it under Comments field.
yours has a laurel wreath whearas the one in the Numista sheet has a wreath of palm branches.
