Awesome!
Thanks,

Based on the photo, I expect that coin is newer than AOE 3, and almost as new as the X-chapters. ;)

If you're into collectibles tho you can find some weird bargains with provenance on eBay, like here's the travel cup of 19th century
Lucile Aurore Dupin aka George Sand just sitting around on the 'Bay (no financial affiliation):
1k seems like a bargain for that, the same seller wants $6500 for some grungy old thank-you note written by Claude Debussy499 rupees is USD$8 or thereabouts, a bargain.
Caveat emptor, ~2000 year old tetradrachms are fairly common as artifacts from antiquity go, but they ain't $8 common.
The line headed straight down the center of the coin at bottom on the "unstruck" edge looks suspiciously like a casting mold seam.
The quality of the artwork is laughable when compared to a real coin, even one with 20 centuries of wear. Athena was one of their _gods_, who would dare to put such a s***ty likeness into mass production
Ah, so is that what someone means when they tell you to "pound Sand"?

"F*ck the Queen!" muttered the King, and 100 men were trampled in the rush, for the King's word was law.
Yes, but is that Win or Paul on the flip side?

I think it's a good likeness

It must be a fake. It's highly unlikely that a coin from that era would survive in that condition.
IIRC it had machine style tooling marks.
