I am a brand new collector. Just saw a few Olbian Dolphins on ebay, but I don't know fadiddly about ancient coins and don't want to get rooked. If affordable, I'd love to buy a legit dolphin that is actually recognizable and not too grotty (cool new word for my vocabulary).

Can anybody point me to a good buy on ebay? I know if it's a REALLY good buy and you're into that kinda thing, you're gonna grab it yourself, but I'm hoping someone here already has what they want and feels like being nice to me.

Thanks!

I would recommend to stay away from ebay if you are just starting out with ancient coins. You would be better off shopping on Vcoins. Here are some Dolphin coins listed there.

I second that advice. Without some background in ancient coins ebay is a bad place to begin collecting.

Pointing you in the direction of VCOINS is a fairly safe way to go.

The bronze dolphins of Olbia can be had for surprisingly little money

Thanks, everybody! I'm going to remember that ebay seller. I'd already found a CELTIC dolphin on vcoins, but he had some other cool items.
