[QUOTE="Marsyas Mike, post: 7858077, member: 85693"]Well darn! :( I hadn't gotten around to checking the obverse legend yet. Thanks for pointing this out - I'd rather know the truth! I'm just going to put it in my black box and not return it - it came in a lot from a seller who had a bunch of ancients he admitted he didn't know much about. The rest of the batch is okay, I'm pretty certain, and the price was right; if there's only one dud I feel it was still a good deal (especially that Claudius II tet and the two sestertii): [ATTACH=full]1354210[/ATTACH] This seller had four or five other lots of Roman/Greeks and there were a couple of obvious fakes here and there, but most of the stuff looked pretty good - the prices went higher than I was willing to go for the others. They looked like the typical hodge-podge from an estate or dealer clean-out. If any CTers won these, please share. Thanks again for the info![/QUOTE]
