Aref Valued Member United Arab Emirates 208 Posts	Posted Yesterday 5:04 pm I came across these coins on Instagram and I need help identifying whether they are genuine or fake before purchasing them. I would be grateful for your insights. I do not have access to better pictures. Report this Post to the Staff

Aref Valued Member United Arab Emirates 208 Posts	Posted Yesterday 5:14 pm The sharp details and a price tag of $54 for the entire set makes me feel like this deal is too good to be true. Report this Post to the Staff
Empty_Pockets Valued Member United States 278 Posts	Posted Yesterday 6:37 pm I'm new to collecting ancients, but for the little I know I think they are legit. Especially if Victor chimes in. Here is a good website on what to do. https://www.numisdon.com/clean-roman-coins-safely/ Joanne Edit: By the way I love the Campgate Edited by Empty_Pockets Yesterday 6:41 pm Report this Post to the Staff

FVRIVS RVFVS Pillar of the Community United States 3496 Posts	Posted Today 1H 2M ago Twenty years ago one might have pulled these coins out of a large bowl full at a 'coin show' and paid $6-8 dollars apiece For a brief period the internet made ancients quite affordable ! I still have a few treasures I scooped up back then But the internet brought in the 'comedians' who now list similar coins for outrageous prices $54 is a nice price . But personally I wouldn't bite much beyond that ! But I am a notorious 'cheapskate' ! Report this Post to the Staff
