Where can I buy one for lower than 15 bucks and has a certain standard of authenticity?

Thanks,

Tigs.

@Glorkar,

Grade is better than those ZacUK suggested, but out of my budget as of this month (and possibly next month too  :snif: ).

@ZacUK, grade is too bad.


I'll browse around eBay, maybe I'll find some nicer looking ones... the authenticity always makes me think twice.

Nonetheless, thank you guys for providing some links. I guess these are readily available for a pretty decent price.

Sorry, one more quick question,

is there a Numista link for this? If so, what do I search?

I got a couple of them, There was a guy on E-bay that was selling 2 of them for around $12 but that was a couple of years ago.  I'm not sure if he's up and running

It's a Judean coin, I think it's this one

Hello,

The first and third links by ZacUK are from the same dealer I got my Widow's Mite from. Straight from Israel.
A dealer I give good ratings for others.

My two cents.

Jason
