[url]http://www.forumancientcoins.com/fakes/index.php[/url] ...especially look at the 'Study Images' lower on the page. You can learn a lot about what to look for. also [url]http://www.forgerynetwork.com[/url] and [url]http://www.ancients.info/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=27[/url] and [url]http://groups.yahoo.com/group/CoinForgeryDiscussionList/[/url] are good resources.
