    I think if you can get a Roman Bronze statue for $150 you have done very well, it is was genuine.

    The coins are all of types widely faked and all that I examined looked suspicious.

    I agree, IMO all of the coins are cast counterfeits (except for the bulk lot).

    everything looks exactly the same, the detail is too good on worn coins, the lettering is too good, he groups coin together that are exactly the same, I wonder what metal he is using because nothing looks silver, everything is dull as f***

    Is it even legal to export such antiquities from Greece?

    I was thinking the same thing, all of his coins look the same....and not in a good way!

    I admit that some of these came up in my searches and I had to stop and look but yeah, even with my limited knowledge of Greek coins, something stunk.
