I get them from all over, California, New Jersey, Ohio, California sent me 15 out of 50, the dealer thought it was funny because he said he got some too, and thats the way it goes.

Re:"The Uncleaned Fake" - Fel Temp!

Well, being a bit of a Fel Temp freak (still looking for a (genuine) "kneeling" by the way  :D) it seems that the honour of posting a fake Fel Temp suitably falls to me  ;D

I deliberately bought the coins in these next 3 pictures as fakes from David - they were all he had received back so far that he could let me have (he kept a dozen for himself).

The Fel Temp is a bit disappointing. You can only see a bit of the horse's rear end and the soldier, bent knee very low down but it's definitely a Fel Temp (-PARATIO...)

My computer or should I say Windows ME - that eternally Damned Object of Pity - packed up AGAIN just after I posted that one pic (I think it's a problem with the USB ports) so here are the other pics. Maybe. My Windows Explorer is already looking weird..
