<p>[QUOTE=&quot;octavius, post: 3328116, member: 100777&quot;][ATTACH]881816[/ATTACH]I purchased this Titus sestertius, that had a&nbsp; great provenance,&nbsp;&nbsp; though a Swiss auction house - very reputable, about 2 yrs ago. I was pleased until I discovered another one EXACTLY like it on a German auction site on sixbid several months later.&nbsp; I notified the auction house from which I obtained the coin, and to their credit they e-mailed me back immediately with appologies and ruturned all my money. Both I (in English ) and they (in German) notified the second auction house now offering my coin&#039;s identical twin for auction. They did respond to me and to the Swiss stating to the effect that no matter how diligent one can be accidents and slip throughs can still happen. But to my surprize and horror, their fake coin remained in their auction and sold for around 2000 euros!!!&nbsp; Caveat Emptor.[ATTACH=full]881816[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
