I have been selling ancient coins full time for over 15 years on a well known auction site, so I am new here to this new website but I do know some things about ancient coins. I am open to reasonable offers and am only shipping to either here in the UK or to Canada and the USA. Payment by PayPal only, for which I do not charge extra unlike most other sellers.

Buyers outside of the UK will be responsible for paying relevant custom duties pertaining to this purchase.
