[QUOTE="TIF, post: 2503873, member: 56859"]It's a tough series because of those fakes. Your best bet is to buy from a knowledgable seller who offers a lifetime guarantee of authenticity, but even then only after learning as much as you can about the issue. A possible snag with the "lifetime guarantee": you may find conflicting opinions among experts. I've never had to put such a guarantee to the test, but I wonder what level of proof is required for a refund? What if the seller's expert disagrees with your chosen expert? If obtaining such an opinion costs you money, is that money reimbursed? (I wouldn't expect so) If you haven't reviewed this page, it is one of many useful resources for this particular fake: [url]http://medusacoins.reidgold.com/newyork.html[/url] Authentic coins, from the same website: [url]http://medusacoins.reidgold.com/apollonia.html[/url][/QUOTE]
