<p>[QUOTE=&quot;edteach, post: 25389174, member: 85141&quot;]I am looking at a coin on eBay that is more than a Gordian the 3rd. Its not slabbed and the dealer is a gold and coin shop. I contacted them and asked if they have someone who authenticates coins of the ancient type he is selling. The reply was that they do not but they do offer a life time guarantee, and that they coin this belonged to was from a collectors estate that collecting ancients was his hobby for many years. The last bit is anecdotal and so not worth much. They have a high rating. 99.6 with 5k sales. Since we are talking about a 3 to 4 hundred dollar coin I can not imagine them wanting to risk neg feed back for that little money. But that aside they have no expertise so they could be fooled. What is the best way to authenticate a coin from the Roman era? Thanks[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
