<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Valentinian, post: 4655666, member: 44316&quot;]I often contact dealers about misattributions (vcoins listings and auction-house listings, but not eBay offerings). Sometimes they simply have the ruler wrong (e.g. Galerius called Maximian, or the wrong Leo number on a Byzantine coin.) Often it is to correct a listing with an attribution suggesting something is rarer than it actually is when I already know the type or it is close enough to my interests to look up. Often errors are because RIC is not easy to use. It is easy to get RIC numbers wrong or simply not find something in RIC when it is there in a place the reader did not look. Rarely do I suspect purposeful deception. More than half the time I get an email &quot;Thank you&quot; and I soon see it corrected. Most other times it is corrected but I don&#039;t get a personal response. Sometimes, but not often, the listing is not corrected. This happens most often when the coin is at auction on an auction-consolidator site and the coin closes in only a couple of days. I think they are too busy and don&#039;t have time to fix it. I hope they notify the winning bidder.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
