<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ambr0zie, post: 5341005, member: 80952&quot;]I have to admit I am a little discouraged now as reading and seeing a big number of forgeries - some of them marked as obvious by experienced collectors makes me a little anxious. Of course, if you easily find 5 examples of die matches / badly cast coins / tourist replicas EXTREMELY obvious, those are easy to spot but I am wondering why don&#039;t I observe some fakes.</p><p><br /></p><p>I only buy from reputable auction houses, I know from my modern coins experience that if something is too good to be true, most likely it isn&#039;t true. I also avoid sellers in my country as trading ancient coins is illegal when bought from unofficial sources.</p><p><br /></p><p>As for Black Sea area being.... gray area, that&#039;s quite a pity as I was born and I live here so it would be an interesting area to develop.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
