Numisma, there is a link to the auction if you want to see all of the details. If you look closely to a real coin and the fake, you can see obvious differences in Nero and the Vesta temple on the reverse. It was a good lesson for me.

Hey guys, I just got my money refunded for the coin!! I feel like I got a free lesson in fakes and forgeries. Thanks for all the great advice. If I hadn't joined this forum, I would have a coin put away I thought was a real Nero. Hopefully someone else learns from my mistake. I'm taking it slow from here on out. I was out of my league for my first coin for sure.
