I bought this coin on a Facebook auction. Not yet in my possision, but got curious if anyone can tell me, if it's the real coin, or a copy? 🤔

It doesn't look like the picture in the catalog page.

N#26204

Thanks for the help! 😁

Hello, it is 100% authentic. As I see in Numista sheet, coin struck over other coin, nad some letters are not visible. So, they are same I think, maybe just a small differences, like subtypes.

enjoy it,

best regards

Good to know and thank you!

I was just concerned since the spacing in the 10 looked very different.

For spacing details you need to compare coins of the same date, and even within the same date there can be multiple dies with differences.
