Bing => "best wishes" to you and your family (health is under-rated) ... maridvnvm => please never be afraid to speak-up and point-out known, or even possible fakes ... sure, it is never a good feeling being stung while the rest of the CCF-crowd watches the thread fall apart, "but" it is far better than you not warning us to be wary and allowing us to blow all of our precious coin-cash ... => so "thank you" and thank the rest of you that chime-in whenever there seems to be a suspect coin (I/we appreciate it)

Quote: This is the second time I have had to inform a collector about a fake this week and it always leaves a bad taste in the mouth. Don't feel bad at all. It's a good thing that you spotted that when you did. I now have a chance to return the coin for a refund. I have already communicated with the seller who did not argue about returning the coin. His only defense was "Because on silver denarius I am not expert,now I start study on denarius". When I have time, I will post this on forum's fake reports. Do you happen to know if this seller is on the NFSL? Thanks again for spotting this and alerting me.

This seller also have MANY fakes in his past sales (Lysimachos tet., Alexander III drachm, Istros, Apollonia, Carus ant., Probus ant., Claudius Drusus sest., Caracalla den.,...)  Don't think it's a legitimate mistake.

Let us know when (if?) he acknowledges receiving the return and issues a refund. Then see if it gets relisted.

The seller refunded my money and and told me to keep the coin: Quote: No problem even is original this coin I would let you happy with my service and communicate Business is business always we win and lost money,this is the game is business :-) So I am going right now to return to you I hope that you would be happy
So we will not be seeing the coin listed again. I have the coin and the money has already been refunded on Paypal. Live and learn, right?
