This is a good site to view documented fakes: [url]http://www.forumancientcoins.com/fakes/index.php[/url] If you don't known this ancient coin forum, I highly recommend you join to learn more about known fakes of ancient coins. If you are looking to start building a collection, it is good advice to only purchase from KNOWN and reputable sellers, for example [url]www.vcoins.com[/url], [url]www.cngcoins.com[/url] and the major auction houses.[/QUOTE]
