The coin that I asked about previously from Ancient India arrived today. It was purchased through an
ebay auction.
Before I leave feedback could I again please ask for further opinions on whether it's genuine or not as there were lots of indicators that made me feel wary.
1. The seller has only been a member for a short time and because of this had no feebback record.
2. He had around ten different ancient India coins up for auction which he said were all rare and he had a spelling mistake in his description.
3. After making my payment of AUD$30 a week went by and it still hadn't been sent, nor had I heard anything from the seller, so I sent him a message.
4. I heard back later that day to say that it had now been sent. The strange thing was that he gave a tracking number through India Post while the listing said the seller was in Melbourne, Australia.
I have taken some photos to show the coin that arrived which appears to be the one that was in the listing. It is approx. 21mm in diameter and weighs 9g on my kitchen scales (only weighs to the closest gram).
Have I been lucky or have I been done?
