[QUOTE="Julius Germanicus, post: 2913336, member: 80783"]Yes, I remember your example and I wanted one, too! :-) I cannot say anything bad about that seller myself. The only coin I bought from him before was certified genuine by Sear. Just asked him about the similarities and he agreed that it looks like the same coin. He told me that he was selling it "for a collector friend who must have cleaned it". That "collector friend" must be more of a businessman than a collector if he buys coins, cleans them in a professional manner, and resells them via a "friend" within six weeks at a huge profit. But then I must admit that I love my Sestertii "clean" and it looks like the "friend" did a great job judging from the seller´s pictures. I would not have bothered to bid for it if I had only seen the pictures from the Savocca Auction. Now I wonder what it will look like in hand and daylight when it gets here later this week...[/QUOTE]
