Nothing obvious says NG. Seller looks legit. I would imagine they would go for quite for a substantial price ! But in life timing is everything isn't it ..... they close out 3 days before Christmas when most people are busy with more pressing concerns. Well worth watching at the close ..... I have 'stolen' a few at this time of year.

Pictures are nowhere good enough to make a definitive judgement as to their authenticity. They could ALL be genuine. I would make a first bid as if they were all fakes. That means about $10 per coin. I would be happy at that price even if they were all duds; they would be added to my reference collection of fake ancient coins, for my own education. IF they were all genuine and you were lucky enough to win, you would have done very well indeed. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I would like to examine each of them very closely 'in hand' for authenticity, before adding any of them to my main collection. You can't do that on ebay, unfortunately. Pity. |

Difficult to say from the picture. You may want to try and contact the sell to see if he could provide better pictures before you bid.

Seller is on the "list". Have tried messaging for better pics but message comes up that he is too busy to answer messages. Wasn't sure on second pic top right, pearls? Might put in a bid, watching with interest.

I would trust them being bona fide purely down to the seller (he has real premises in Bond Street and has sold many interesting coins on ebay) |

I am not bidding further on this lot. Both photos seem to show the same side of the coins. I would prefer to see both sides before bidding higher :)
