<p>[QUOTE=&quot;NJM Ancients, post: 1710500, member: 51464&quot;]At 6 o&#039;clock and the BEAD to the left of that....is a CLEAR DRIPPING BEAD, in my opinion attached to Apollos NECK. Next to the horses rear, the LUMP, above at approximately 10-11 o&#039;clock above Apollos head...a small BEAD (BUBBLE)....on the Reverse in front of the horses head (eyes) a double LUMP (DARK) mass.....and if you mouse over it with the Magnifier on his EBay page look for &quot;cast bubbles&quot; there are a few....</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m of the same opinion Medoraman. I did not bring this to the attention of others here to blatantly attack the seller. BTW, his Greek coins, have the same style of Patina and shading, and, the surface(s) have similar features to make the collector weary. His one or 2 Roman silvers are rather different concerning surface.&nbsp; Have seen this kind thing before,add FAKE coins to auctions along side Authentic ones, again, Im posting for opinions not to condemn the seller. I have been collecting for 20 years Greek &amp; Roman and worked for a major coin house besides working for a jeweler.&nbsp; I have a great source from Spain, that tells me, most of the Greek coins being sold from there are FAKE. In fact he refuses to purchase any for his collection and, he&#039;s a seller on EBay also. We discussed this coin last night and are both in agreement. </p><p><br /></p><p>Another thing I do when selling pieces of my collection is photograph the FLAN EDGE. Those who understand what I&#039;m saying know how important this is. I always include clear pictures of the Obverse/Reverse/Flan Edge. I will also add, where is the weight? the diameter of the coin? the thickness? in his description....I ALWAYS ADD these important facts of the coin to my auctions. Weight standards &amp; diameter were created for a specific reason.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
