I purchased this three coin lot last week. I have not received these coins yet and I will post them separately when I do. However, I wanted to get this post in just under the wire for 2014. I have already attributed each coin, but, if you know my collecting habits, the reason I purchased this lot was for the Republican. I got this entire lot at the extremely low price of $47 plus shipping, making each coin less than $16. Not bad, eh?
Nice! I also just realised why the last time I saw an ancients bargain bin, it was labelled "Bargain Bing" .
Damn, Bing. The Republic denarius is worth the $47 alone, if not more. Great steal - and all the coins are in nice shape.
That's what I thought. I've been looking for RRs with bigas pulled by various animals/beings within my budget and I'll be darned if this didn't just fall into my lap.
WHAT?! $47?! I would have paid that for the goat biga Republican alone. Jealous. The type and several other "unusual modes of transportation" Republicans are still on my hitlist.
You win, brother ... I give ... "Uncle, Uncle" => nobody else on planet earth could find a better deal than that!! Oh ummm, maybe Jango? (errr but yah, I'm pretty sure that VK isn't from our planet!!?) Wow => hats-off to you dudes that have great patience and wait in the reeds (like buttered cheetahs) and then leap-out at the last minute to save big-bucks ... => I love all of you guys (and gal) Cheers and Happy New Years!!
