IMPORTANT NOTICE:
Concerning Fake
Artifacts
on eBay
Unfortunately eBay has attracted sellers who are producing and selling fake art
i
facts
with COA’s that are just as bogus
.
The most prolific COA's are mostly on fakes.
I am among a
very small handful of dealers
who
are committed to selling only genuine relics. For that reason we refuse to sell artifacts with COA's from many of these authenticators
The only people who's opinions I trust enough to recognize their COA's are the following:
Ben Stermer, Dwain Rogers, Bill Jackson, Greg Perino, Jim Bennett
, Tony Putty, Jackson Gallery, a
nd
Ken Partain
.
Right now eBay is full of fake art
i
facts. I see thousands of
dollars
spent every week on eBay, by customers who are taken in by these criminals, while genuine art
i
facts go for next to nothing because they do not look as good as the fakes. I cannot
emphasize
enough that you should research before you invest
.
A
little common sense may save you a small fortune; for example, does the seller seem to have an endless supply of such attractive art
i
facts that even the
Museums do
not display
in quantity
?
For example, offering 2 or 3 Clovis, Cumberland, or Folsom points every week.
SO, ask questions, and best to get a COA from one of the Authenticators mentioned above. Ancient Rare Authentic Viking Kievan Rus Byzantin type Iron Battle Axe 7-9th AD
.
Weight 626 grams.
100% Authenticity guarantee.
