    My wife and I have some coins. We are wondering if you all can help us in how much they could be worth.

    They all look fake to me. Looks like casting pits, mushy details, odd patina.

    Look at the edges/rims fir a line where a front and back casting have been joined.

    Ok what is the easiest way to spot if these are fake. I came across these and I've never came across "ancient coins"

    Ok I don't see casting marks on edge or rims. Some parts of the coins or thicker than others. When thes coins was found we could not see what they were. My wife put a coin cleaner solution on them and yes I know don't clean coins, but she didn't know. How else can I check if these are fake. I've never came across "ancient coins".and what is suppose to be the weight of the coins.

    Who checked them out? Did they give you information on what they could be? Did they give you a value? Who will you send the coins to get authenticated?

    Next time use a simple background. A white piece of paper with no lines would be better. The background you used was very distracting and most likely affected the true colors of you coins.

    And there is an Ancient Coin forum here on Cointalk. You should of posted there instead to get information... then worry about the value
