<p>[QUOTE="sand, post: 8100916, member: 118540"]P.P.S. : [USER=132206]@Rockymountaincoin[/USER] Here are some sources, where you can search for authentic examples of coins. I believe, that most of the coins in the following sources are authentic. However, there may be a few fakes. I don't know.</p><p>1. ACsearch : <a href="https://www.acsearch.info/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.acsearch.info/" rel="nofollow">https://www.acsearch.info/</a></p><p>Free. To use the basic search feature (or perhaps to view large photos of coins. I've forgotten), you have to create an account, but it's free. To view hammer prices, you have to have a paid subscription. I just use the free search feature. I use this web site, more than any other.</p><p>2. CNG Research : <a href="https://cngcoins.com/Coins_sold.aspx" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://cngcoins.com/Coins_sold.aspx" rel="nofollow">https://cngcoins.com/Coins_sold.aspx</a></p><p>Free. I recently discovered this, after someone on CoinTalk mentioned it. It looks pretty good. Just type keywords, into the "Search" text area. CNG has a stellar reputation, with experts who know what they are doing.</p><p>3. Roma Search : <a href="https://www.romanumismatics.com/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.romanumismatics.com/" rel="nofollow">https://www.romanumismatics.com/</a></p><p>Free. I also recently discovered this, after someone on CoinTalk mentioned it. It also looks pretty good. Roma also has a good reputation, with experts who seem to know what they are doing. However, I don't know as much about Roma, as I know about CNG.</p><p>4. Wildwinds : <a href="https://www.wildwinds.com/coins/i.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.wildwinds.com/coins/i.html" rel="nofollow">https://www.wildwinds.com/coins/i.html</a></p><p>Free. A good, free search web site. I have used this a lot.</p><p>5.

However, books cost money. Some ancient coin collectors don't have any coin books at all. Other ancient coin collectors have spent a significant amount of money on coin books. You can find recommended coin books, by searching the CoinTalk threads. The books that I use the most, for ancient coin attributions, are the following Sear books : Greek Coins And Their Values Volume 1, Greek Coins And Their Values Volume 2, Roman Coins And Their Values Volume I (Roman Republic, Julius Caesar, and the first 11 emperors), Roman Coins And Their Values Volume V (Constantine II through Romulus Augustus), and Byzantine Coins And Their Values.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
