<p>[QUOTE=&quot;kirispupis, post: 8194075, member: 118780&quot;]Yes, VCoins is in general trustworthy. The following though are a few honest opinions about it.</p><ol> <li>There are two well-known sellers who add fake desert patina to their coins. The coins themselves are real, but the patina is not and often inflates the price of the coin.</li> <li>I would buy coins on VCoins, but not antiquities. They are highly suspect, and one artifact I considered - which was listed as &quot;Roman&quot; I researched to discover it was in fact from the early 20th century.</li> <li>There are several sellers with extremely high prices. If you look around for some time, they should become obvious. Their listings make relatively common coins sound much rarer in order to justify the prices to newbies.</li> <li>There&#039;s at least one seller that resells items won at various auctions. The issue with the particular seller I know is some of those auction houses are not reputable.</li> </ol><p>I&#039;ve purchased from and recommend the following sellers:</p><ul> <li>Marc Breitsprecher</li> <li>Aegean Numismatics</li> <li>London Ancient Coins</li> <li>N&amp;N Collection</li> <li>CoinIndia</li> <li>Ken Dorney</li> <li>Numiscorner</li> </ul><p>You should also look at ma-shops. I&#039;ve ordered from the following shops there without issues.</p><ul> <li>Dr Busso Peus</li> <li>Sann</li> <li>Henzen</li> <li>M&amp;M</li> <li>Mike Vosper</li> <li>Fenzl</li> <li>Kolner Munzkabinett</li> </ul><p>Stay far away from EBay. The majority of ancient coins there are fake.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
