« on: July 27, 2016, 12:07:52 pm »
Hi all , Great site.
I have been into all things ancient Rome since i was a kid . I've been there 6 times now. Recently I saw a Nero coin on Ebay and in my excitement bought it .
The [NAME REMOVED BY ADMIN] ..I've seen a few things on line about him that made me suspicious.
Here's the original ad
Authentic Ancient Coin of:
Nero - Roman Emperor:  54-68 A.D. -
Silver Denarius 18mm (3.09 grams) Rome mint: 64-65 A.D.
Reference: RIC 53; RSC 119; Sear'88 #673
NERO CAESAR AVGVSTVS, laureate head right.
IVPPITER CVSTOS, Jupiter seated left, bare to the waist, holding thunderbolt and scepter.
Not sure if the pics I attached poster
Any help would be greatly appreciated

I don't see the sellers name on the NSF list, so that's a good start.

I don't see anything wrong with this coin that raises my suspicions, but you may want to wait until the experts reply.

Looks OK to me....from the picture. The weight is fine, if correct.

My bad! I should have noted that. I blame lack of sleep after flying for 8 hours today.
