A contemporary copy or fake coin produced by a local workshop imitating a bronze official issue of the emperor Augustus. Barbarian fakes manufactured during the ancient Roman timeline, although inexpensive at auction, present a fascinating area to research for those collecting on a budget. TimeLine Auctions normally has a small quantity of contemporary imitations on offer for those interested in this captivating area of numismatics.
