£20 Worth it for 'higher cost coins'. Blasts through customs (had this experience several times), and you know it reaches your doorstep. I have used fedex for reliable overnite shipments for YEARS in business (prototypes, development samples, etc.) all over the globe. I rarely had import/export and customs issues. Usually were able to resolve fairly quickly. Worth the price in many cases.
Nice example Alegandron! I got some Carthage-mint coins but they are far removed from this time period.
The Roman order for the Siege of Carthage was: Kill them ALL... so there was no bickering or arguing...
this coin wasn't what i thought it was when i bought it and now not what i think it is when i post it. bah! humbug! i guess the moneyer was m cato on this coin. it all in where you look, who you ask and what you believe i guess.
