  I  bought a second hand camera yesterday for £30,  just trying it out,
This is one a found a few years ago at the foot of some coal tip,  I thought i'd found my fist Roman coin.  But it turned out to be a replica,
 it was proberbly worn my a coal miner down the pits as a good luck / keep you safe Charm around his neck on a chain,

Gutting Alan ;0( lol

Byron brought 2 replica Romans to the meeting last night for a laugh.

They never fooled us coin experts lol Roll Eyes

When i was driving for a living i bought a load of Roman replicas from the Wales national Museium to put on my Lorry keys  i used to spend most of my Dinner times at a pub close to Chepstow Castle one day i lost the lot ;0( i wonder if the people that found them thought they where genuine  lol

Another WRL coin hey (Made by Westair Reproductions Limited)

at least they stamp there reps.
since ive been collecting coins ive learnt a lot about fakes theres some very good ones about even coin experts can get fooled

I collect uncleaned  Romans coz i know you cant fake that sort of age !
