Ok, how much should I insure them for?

consequential damages should be about $10

or stick them on ebay & get $100 from people that can't tell the difference.

Thinking about it, there is a serious message here for those that wish to suck it up.

If you can't tell the difference from a real coin or a fake one from a picture (& yes it can be much harder than these), then you are best NOT bidding any large amounts on rare coins. There are tons of these out there, I see them on ebay everyday & some sucker is paying over the odds for a fake. DON'T BE THAT SUCKER! (I tried for years to warn people on ebay, but now that they have 'protected' the ID of bidders I can no longer message them) I have reported countless rip-off merchants & ebay ignore me, I have even rallied over 20 sellers/dealers who all agreed that a user was selling fakes & ebay ignored us all. There is a lesson in this, ebay take the money & don't care how they get it.

Maybe we can negotiate a "MOVE" Perhaps to the Hammered forum. Then maybe my coins will get some respect!

If you think the coins are starting to get good check out the better fake watches. Usually there's a very small mistake to tell the difference, and apart from that, they are a very good match. At least with coins there is usually the age factor.

Rule No. 1. DIY (dig it yourself) Then there will be no doubts about authenticity. Though, on the second thought, there are a lot of ancient and Victorian fourrees of Greek and Roman coins. People were cheating even without ebay . For example, one very resourceful Greek in the 19th century were counterfeiting en masse ancient coins and was selling them to British tourists. So diggers in the UK beware .
