Thanks guys ! I am reading as much as I can about ancient coins .. the same thing that I did years ago when I started to collect antiques was taking as much informations possible ( knowledge is power ) I used to visit a reputable auction house in the past but they did not have numismatic auctions. I have been purchasing many antiques on Ebay and honestly thanks heavens that there is Ebay where sometime antiques are still affordable ! but with the coins it is indeed a different world, perhaps because it is one of the most easy thing to fake by unscrupulous people are infact coins.

I have been collecting antiques and antiquities for several years now. I`ve started to collect ancient coins and I purchased some coins years ago but only in bronze or silver. My father used to have a large collection of antique vintage coins, I am more interested about ancient coins but with so many fakes around, it is a quite difficult task. I would be tempted to buy one or two gold coins on Ebay but looking at the several comments and warnings about fakes , I don`t know what to do considering also that gold coins are not cheap at these days ! I do not have the time to go around all day and look for numismatic shops ect.. this is why I would prefer it to buy these coins online. I have also checked the ' Black lists of Fake coins sellers of UK and USA Ebay ' ect.. but these guys might have already changed their ID reason why they have 100% positive feedback. Any good advice ?? or previous experiences to share ? Thanks :-)
