Hi Marko --

It's the right weight and diameter. That's good.

This is a very rare coin. I used my favorite CoinArchivesPro database and looked up "Titus Colosseum" and got only 19 matches. That's not very many in a database of 2 million ancient coins.

It is always dangerous to compare ancient coins using side-by-side photos. But, to try to give you the best possible answer, I photoshopped your coin (crudely cut out of your photos) to a known genuine coin. What do you think of the side-by-side comparison?

For one thing, the genuine coin is absolutely amazing. It comes from Numismatica Ars Classica and sold for $464,000 US dollars. CoinQuest thanks Numismatica Ars Classica for use of their coin photo. Their auction write-up appears below.

Trying to compare the two coins, there are marked departures. The two areas I notice are the angle Titus is seated at, and the position of the ball-like helmet below the seat. The size and shape of the shields are different as well.

I looked carefully at the 18 other examples in the database, and none matched the seating angle and position of the helmet. This leads me to believe your coin is a replica.

There is such great potential if your coin is genuine, it is probably worthwhile to have it professionally authenticated. But I would not get my hopes us. This coin is so rare and so valuable, it is a prime target for crooks.

Here is the description from the auction of the genuine coin pictured.
