Calciati I, 272, 11: Forgery?

[njmolinari]

The area that appears to show "Ziz" is not nearly as convincing in hand, but it does look like it in the photo. It looks like modest corrosion in hand. In any event, thanks very much for your input. David acknowledged that we cannot be certain either way, so I would like it to be listed as a "possible" new variant in Potamikon.

Now a third specimen listed by Lanz, 2.1g!

Difficult to judge. It may be authentic, but the flan is very erratic and strange, even if compatible to an emergency emission of mercenaries....

[njmolinari]

Another specimen. I think we can see the barley corn on this example, perhaps confirming my earlier hypothesis.

[njmolinari]

The reverse.

Sorry, here it is.

I purchased this most recent piece for the sake of studying it in hand. I'll also try and capture the section above the man-faced bull better, if possible.
