I don't know how dangerous some are, at least a couple the Nerva and Domitioan and Vespasian Sestertii have the letters WRL stamped into the bust. Looks like one of them they attempted to remove partially.

On some of his auctions he uses the word copy, sounds like someone to steer clear of, but if bidders read the word copy....

It appears the WRL marked coins are sold and described as copies.  The others are sold with no guarantee of authenticity.  Nothing seems to be presented as ancient.
