They look real. The price seems high to me, though.

@keith12, I'm really glad to stopped in over here. We have a couple sticky threads that talk about which sellers to avoid and which ones focus your purchases on. Just as with so many other areas of numismatics, there are counterfeits and counterfeiters. Here is a link to a recent learning opportunity for me:

They are all late Roman coins that were struck in the millions, unless they are of the few rare later emperors they are genuine.

- all real, but far too common to be worth anywhere near $37.

...Come to think of it, I wouldn't be surprised if the entire coin pile in that listing isn't worth $37 combined; they're that common.
