[QUOTE="Harry G, post: 7803581, member: 105282"]Hi all! I was browsing eBay, and came across this seller. They are pretty new to selling ancient coins, so I haven't seen them before (although they have sold a decent amount of modern coins in the past). Most of their coins look genuine - at least the one's I'm interested in - but some of them look a bit strange. For example, this rather rare dupondius of Livia has some weird dips in the surface, and I'm wondering if they're casting bubbles [ATTACH=full]1340172[/ATTACH] Also, does this Faustina looks tooled? [ATTACH=full]1340178[/ATTACH] They are selling lots of high value coins, as well as low value ones. Such as this Caesar denarius [ATTACH=full]1340177[/ATTACH] ...and this Gallienus antoninianus [ATTACH=full]1340180[/ATTACH] I'm not interested in buying any of the coins above, but they do also have a couple of scarcer antoniniani that I might be interested in (such as a Macrianus antoninianus) Any thoughts? All coins are auctions starting at £0.99[/QUOTE]
