If they were dug up from a grave in Macedonia (and were genuine), I suspect that the Macedonian government would be more than interested to learn of you (or anyone else) selling them off. </p><p><br /></p><p>As it is, it looks like they don&#039;t dig them up as old as they used to do. I have 99.999 % certainty that at least one of these is a modern fake....and if it came with the rest, then the grave it came from isn&#039;t any older than me. </p><p><br /></p><p>Perhaps I am being to harsh? </p><p><br /></p><p>I think not, but the best thing you can do is get them authenticated. Once you have done so, if there are indeed any genuine items there Ii would be pleased to personally give you any and all the information you require.
