[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 4299706, member: 2844"]Moderators, can this be pinned? There are several websites and pages devoted to alerting the public to fake antiquities and fakes dealers. Antiquities are not regular antiques, but items from ancient history, like Ancient Greece, Rome, Egypt, Bactria, Indus Valley, etc. The following site is extremely important, it has a wealth of information on many items and types of materials, and good links: [URL]http://www.collector-antiquities.com/real-or-fake/the-fakebusters-and-other-websites-about-fakery.html[/URL] Some useful pages from the site: [URL]http://www.collector-antiquities.com/real-or-fake/fakes-and-forgeries-in-classical-pottery.html[/URL] [URL]https://www.collector-antiquities.com/real-or-fake/fake-ancient-glass/[/URL] Other useful websites: [URL]https://heliosgallery.com/antiquities/tips-on-collecting/[/URL] [URL]https://ancientartifakes.net/smf/[/URL] [URL]http://augustuscoins.com/ed/fakesellers.html[/URL] [URL]https://ancientartifakes.net/smf/index.php/topic,1227.msg5681.html#msg5681[/URL] [URL]http://www.olafsprenger.de/faked-or-authentic.html[/URL] [URL]http://www.seal-collector.de/fakes-on-ebay.html[/URL] [URL]https://www.tf.uni-kiel.de/matwis/amat/iss/kap_b/illustr/ib_1_3.html[/URL] (Fake Luristan swords) If anyone knows of good websites that I haven't posted, please add them to this thread. Thank you, and "let's be careful out there".;)[/QUOTE]
