Ancient artefacts are finite, less are being discovered as time passes, and of course at some point in the future there will be no more. The quantity and availability of these ancient historic pieces is ever decreasing as collectors and museums purchase these objects and take them permanently off the market. Consequently, investment in antiquities is rising. Of course there are few of us who can afford to offer millions on objects like the Guennol Lioness, but, as availability decreases across the whole spectrum of ancient artefacts, investment is proving to be provident and wise, and most of all, for the sheer pleasure of owning a piece of ancient history.Concerning Fake artefacts on

A lot these fakes are made with silver, or precious metal clay kits. We have seen fake gold, and lots of fake silver \"artefacts\" on . A little research into this area (wikipedia have a page on Precious Metal Clay) could save you a lot of money.

Also, a little common sense may save you a small fortune; for example, does the seller seem to have an endless supply of such atractive artefacts that even the British Museum does not display?!
