    I dunno either, but I kinda doubt it? Oh, I dunno. Maybe the photocertificate-only tier is five or ten bucks cheaper. Maybe. I didn’t even know that was a thing until Randy bought those two above.

    My early January FUN show NGC Ancients submission is still in limbo with no word, six months later. :yack:

    (I did get the photos some time back, however.)

    Great looking set, even fascinating for someone like me who knows nothing about ancients. Fascinating that they're so dang old and many still look really good! :cigar: Lastly, there's a couple of gold Caligula's on feebay right now with sellers asking for astronomical amounts of moola, my guess is high retail! lol.gif

    Yowch! That’s nuts! But a Caligula aureus IS a pricey coin, without a doubt.

    (Five figures easy- but not six- not for that one.)
