Title: fakeseller from Italy...leonivan82

I am adding this person to the fakeseller list. He currently has a fake Julian II coin for sale. Rest of his items look OK and maybe this fake listing is a mistake, but he does say that it comes from an old collection; however this is a fairly new fake.

He also recently sold what looks like a cast Hadrian, shown below. He had a disclaimer in the description of "I am not an expert and can't guarantee authenticity" and later added that it was probably a copy. Maybe not a crook, but merely inexperienced.

So, he might not actually be a fakeseller on purpose, but rather by mistake. I will continue to watch his auction listings, I even bought a VLPP from him last month, so hopefully this Julian listing was only a mistake.
