Title: Re: New auction for a gold coin on bidding pond! Post by: grondilu on March 25, 2011, 02:39:59 AM How do we know this is a real coin and not a replica? I know it weights the correct weight, and looks exactly the same as many others, but there is no way I can prove it on line. You just have to look at the photos and video, and consider my selling history: so far no one has ever complained about receiving a fake coin. PS. Also: good quality fake coins of that size are very rare. The only I know of are actually filled with platinium (they were minted at a period when platinium was cheaper than gold), and are now much more expensive than real coins.

Indeed, this coin is sometimes nicknamed "angel" and is one of the nicest of the napoleon series. Title: Re: New auction for a gold coin on bidding pond!

Hmm... sounds like an opportunity for an honest appraiser to make a name for himself in the community. Title: Re: New auction for a gold coin on bidding pond! Post by: grondilu on March 31, 2011, 01:53:49 PM Less than 7 days left. Are you guys going to let ender_x take all my coins or something? He has already won my two previous auctions.

If it goes all the way through with only gold filing produced, it's legitimate. If the drill bit stops in the center, you have a dud.
