<p>[QUOTE=&quot;sand, post: 24699159, member: 118540&quot;]Many later ancient Roman coins (200 AD or later), can be purchased in very fine or extremely fine condition, for less than $150. And, many such coins have been professionally cleaned, to remove the toning. Therefore, the condition of the coin, and the cleanliness of the coin, do not indicate that the coin is fake, to me. However, I&#039;m not expert enough, in this coin type, to know if the coin is authentic or fake. Sometimes, the edge of the coin, shows signs of casting or electrolysis, if the coin is a cast fake or electrolysis fake. Sometimes, the obverse and reverse show signs of casting, if the coin is a cast fake. The better the photos, and the clearer the photos, and the better the lighting shining on the coin, and the higher resolution the photos, the easier it is, to find signs of being a fake. However, I realize, that, not everyone has access to the best photography equipment.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
