I saw this Matidia denarius on ebay. It sold for $380, offered by a seller with 4000+ feedback and a 100% rating, but who didn't have anything else listed by way of ancient coins.

I checked some of the fake Roman websites and found lots of examples of this type, but nothing that looked like a match to this coin.

The style looks good to me, but in this worn condition, I can't be sure if the coin is authentic.

Opinions?

Here's the link to the auction as well as two photos from it.

I'm tempted to say it's genuine. I wouldn't think twice if it was offered by CNG or Roma. If so, someone got a deal.

Agreed. I buy/bid on ebay all the time, but only make the bigger purchases from trusted sellers.

I found this example on CoinArchives which sold for $340 plus buyer's fees.
