I'm sorry but this is undoubtedly a modern fake.
Nope, nada. @IdesOfMarch01 mentioned holding off payment till I can confirm it is in the same condition as the auction photo. Unfortunately...
Unusually nice Vespasian Martin, great detail in the eye. I would be happy if it were in my collection.
Interesting thought! I haven't checked the auction to see the actual amounts all these lots went for. I will tonight.
I think Doug has summed this up perfectly as usual. I'm not mad or impatient, simply surprised that no one has gotten back to me yet. This is...
Thanks for the kind defense @Orfew and @Sallent. 1) Thank you @SeberHusky for informing me these coins are not my property. That news does not...
Well, here's the update: No response so far! On Sunday I sent a simple and polite email explaining I received a number of coins but not the one...

Hehehe, I must admit it went through my mind for a second or two :woot:
Except I was the high bidder on only one.... When I received the auction house's package (from Europe and I'm in the US) I immediately knew...
Beautiful examples, thanks for posting them! I too would love to add one of these to my collection! This year has been very good to you David!
That's the only answer I came up with. The seller sent me a message saying that the high bidder didn't pay and he was relisting the coin. He said...
Getting back on topic, it reminds me of something that happened a while back. I was following a common but nice coin. I didn't really care if I...
Some really fine examples, regardless of flaws. Nice to see them posted.
A few days ago Mr. Atherton showed off a wonderful coin that many other collectors would have ignored....
