I am not sure if you guys are aware Echizento here on CCF has a ton of fully attributed ancient coins from the Roman Empire, I am sure he could fit any date range. Some of the coins are large and some are small, all are at a decent price I would send him a PM, or maybe he will chime in.

to be a bit more specific.
I am looking for coins that are in really good condition. As kind person PM'd me a note and a link to one he had, it was cool and fit the need, but I am looking for one in better condition, and am not afraid of paying up to 100.00 or so.

I need to look into the "widow's mite" coin and see if I can find one in great shape. Also, my biggest fear, is that since I know nothing of ancient coins, I would be an easy mark for a ripoff. Which is mostly why I posted here rather then just going to ebay.

Take a look at vcoins, all reputable dealers, you will pay retail price but you will get the real deal.
http://www.vcoins.com/en/Default.aspx

Check all the listings carefully, you will see that some stores are more expensive than others.

Another place to go is http://www.forumancientcoins.com/Ab...hopping.html but vcoins would be my first stop. You would be wise to stay away from ebay. Nice looking coins, not necessarily real.

Note: Widows mites are heavily copied so beware of fakes.

Vcoins has a pretty flexible search engine. Put in a price range, say $75 - $100 will bring in just a couple of nice ones,

If these don't suite and you want something with a historical angle, try putting Pontius Pilate into the search. Not widows mites, but prutahs.

My membership on this forum is too new to send you a pm. Maybe if you sent me one I'd be able to reply?
