Delistclearly not a genuine coin of Clement XI pontificat time in 1707 (just have a look on what quality it could be at this time [1]),so this picture is just a good photography of a commemorative coin : no historical value thus doesn't warrant featured status IMO.--B.navez (talk) 07:17, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
- You are comparing used, worn, coins with an unused one. --MichaelMaggs (talk) 08:38, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
- No it was not a matter of worn state, but a matter of coining technics. In 1707 it was not possible to coin such regular pieces. But this is not a coin, this is a medal (of course, who have ever seen a coin more than 10 cm large in diameter ?). It means it is a unique handcrafted large piece (you can see the work of the sculptor Ferdinande Sevo in the metal) and historically genuine (I have checked the signature). This good photography of historical value (nothing to do with coin collecting hobby) warrants featured status.
