Caesar1120 New Member United States 16 Posts	Posted 08/23/2014 11:50 am This is going to be my first actual purchase of an ancient coin and obviously I am not very knowledgeable when it comes to detecting fakes, anyways I was looking at this coin: It is selling for US $35, and I think it looks real. Any input from someone who knows more about them? Also, is Vcoins always reliable? * Edited by Staff to remove YELLING * Report this Post to the Staff

Caesar1120 New Member United States 16 Posts	Posted 08/23/2014 12:38 pm I have another (probably stupid) question about vcoins. The site that Vcoins brought me to, and the site that actually showed the coin was called Aegean numismatics. So are these sites like Aegean Numismatics vcoin "dealers" and are they as reliable as vcoins itself? Sorry if these seem like dumb questions but I wasnt sure if Aegean Numismatics was an actual reliable dealer for vcoins. Report this Post to the Staff
ThisIsFun Pillar of the Community United States 2480 Posts	Posted 08/23/2014 12:44 pm Vcoins is a site which hosts virtual stores for individual dealers. Aegean is one of those dealers. On the Vcoins home page you will notice a couple of links in the Ancient Coins box, one to display all the individual dealers ("view stores") and another to view the coins ("view coins"). I've bought a number of coins and books from Vcoins dealers and had the pleasure of meeting some of them at the ANA World's Fair of Money earlier this month. All of the folks I met were friendly and helpful. Report this Post to the Staff
