<p>[QUOTE=&quot;AnemicOak, post: 278987, member: 5224&quot;]The experts would be guys like David Sear, The British Museum, Curtis Clay at HJB (there are more of course).&nbsp; The thing with ancients is buying from a good dealer.&nbsp; On ebay you&#039;ll be taking a crap shoot on if the coin&#039;s authentic or not and/or if it&#039;s been altered at all.&nbsp; Sticking with dealers on VCoins &amp; a few others (CNG, HJB, Ed Waddell, Freeman &amp; Sear, there are more) will get you your authentic coins along with a guarantee.&nbsp; ICG uses J.P. Martin as their expert on ancients, no idea on his credentials.&nbsp; As far as attribution, all TPG slabbed coins I&#039;ve seen have only the most basic attribution.&nbsp; The numerical grades TPG&#039;s use really don&#039;t fit into the world of ancients either.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
