maybe he does not know that this coin is a fake, or maybe he does not care. This is a known Constans fake, the real thing was struck only in silver.

I have not added him to the fake seller list (yet) but it seems that I was watching this guy in the past, but don't remember for sure now.

I messaged him, but never heard back

This guy has been on eBay since 2014, but I have not noticed him before. Maybe he has only recently begun selling fakes, or I just missed him. Anyway, he has a bunch of junk for sale; though he states they have "been in the family for over 50 years"

a new seller from the UK with what look like Slavey reproductions.

He actually has these marked as replicas in the item specifics, but in the description makes no mention of replica...he states "Very nice and rare roman silver..." So, he is trying to trick people.

this guy -- npk1973

https://www.ebay.com/usr/npk1973

is selling a lot of fakes. He has several groups of bronzes with five culls and in the center what looks like a large bronze in nice condition. He also has several fake silver coins.

I just noticed his name Nikolay Karamanliev and his old eBay ID was red-one73 which was changed from skeletorians. It is the same person as jim5658  vespasiana1981 and rainbowraw. So he is an experienced cheat.

ancientknights

this guy is selling a lot of fakes...a lot of medieval junk. Funny thing, he is selling a few authentic, like the Theodosius GLORIA ROMANORVM (last picture); which is in terrible condition and worth a dollar or two; but he has it starting at 150 GBP/ $194.

maybe this seller doesn't know, or doesn't really care. Some of his coins looked genuine, so maybe just an honest mistake. He did have this posted about the fake EID MAR "Small Denarius possibly made for use in  jewelry, rings etc." So, I am not adding him to the fake seller list, merely making a topic and hopefully I remember to periodically check on him.
