<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 1089497, member: 19463&quot;]Nice group.&nbsp; I am personally uncomfortable with any Apollonia Pontica after what we went through with the Black Sea Hoard fakes and do not pretend to be able to spot them 100% of the time.&nbsp; I have one that I have had for years and will be buying no more simply because I&#039;m too lazy to do the research I&#039;d feel necessary to be comfortable.&nbsp; I am more comfortable with the other Black Sea Hoard type from Messembria but pass on many of them as not certainly good as well as the many seen that I feel are certainly bad.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>This coin is not the same obverse as the original Black Sea fakes so it certainly does not belong to that bunch but I remain concerned about any anchor and crayfish coins simply because I have not kept up with the project.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
