<p>[QUOTE="J Dagger, post: 9943683, member: 10944"]Heritage, Doyle, Freeman, Leland Little are a few more with a solid rep for not passing fakes in the USA. Once you get much smaller than that if the auction house doesn’t specialize in a particular thing they likely don’t have a specialist for it. I wouldn’t totally trust any local/regional auction house to be able to tell a good or even half way decent Roman fake from an authentic example. I’d maybe trust some not to sell that type of thing from a consignor they found dubious but that’s about it. It’s such a niche thing and there’s so many things to know when you’re doing general sales.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
