A community for collectors of ancient and medieval coins.

ID requests are welcome, but please post clearly lit images of both sides of the coin as well as a picture of the edges of the coin.

Sales posts are welcome. Inspired by the old ancientcoins subreddit, memes and jokes are only allowed on the last day of the month.

I general, just be nice to each other :)

When I started collecting ancient coins I was stunned you could just, like, buy them. On ebay, via auctions, etc.

Ebay, however, is full of fakes, and as a new collector you have no means of spotting a fake coin unless it's very obvious. So where do you go?

Vcoins

Vcoins is a sort of marketplace for ancient coins, where trusted dealers list their coins for sale. Almost every dealer there provides a lifetime guarantee that their coins are genuine, and will take back a coin if it's fake.

You can find coins in all price ranges - from 10 dollar late roman bronze coins to gold coins costing thousands of dollars.
