I would recommend vcoins or MA-Shop before going to ebay to try and get such a coin.

 

@Exodus_gear is dead on ...unless the dealer can be independently verified, and only 'happens' to list on ebay, rather than it being their native element. (...Right, very much on an individual basis, there are such beasts.)

 

anyone know AJs coins

 

I've never bought from them but their coins don't look obviously fake.
Have you checked the fake sellers report on Forum?

I checked and they aren't on it.

 

All sales are Private Listings. Right or wrong, that is a red flag for something to hide. This is a common coin that can be bought from sources that are not in question. The coin may be good but only you can decide if it is worth the risk.

 

For this coin, I would recommend staying with safer sources.

 

Here is another one of this seller's offerings.

I would avoid this seller like the plague.

 

i've never dealt with'em...and from what Herodotus has shown..i'd steer clear...

 

Ouch. I just bought fire 7Sev denarii from AJS which were all perfectly authentic.

but that coin shown above is atrocious. Any seller who can’t tell the difference between good and a terrible fake is one to avoid
