Not bad at all, especially the Lucius Verus. He is one I still don't have.

Philips in that condition aren't particularly hard to find, so just don't overpay for it (check comparable coins on VCoins to see what they're going for.) I'd be happy with any of them though.

Who is the seller? ebay? I own all four of those Emperors, and the one that looks off is the Verus. Mind you, I am a novice. However you need the RIC numbers, then match them on Wildwinds and check size and weights. I have perused the fakes prior to the Julius Caesar sell and found the fake that would later be determined to match the one CNG was selling, but I was confident that I knew little compared to the experts.

Chuy, I did check Vcoins and the one example of THIS coin that I found there was $250 (but it was VF).

THanks everyone, I would appreciate you looking at and commenting on the other three.

That particular one may be rarer than most, I wouldn't know. If the type isn't important to you and you just want a nice Philip I then you can get one cheaper.
