    I've seen this at a very credible auction house for sale currently at £540 plus fees is it worth a bid?

    I would say yes. Is it "for sale" or at auction?

    It's a beaut, but if you're not sure it's worth the price I would recommend waiting and watching others at auction before diving in wallet first.

    That's a superb new style owl. I would expect that it will hammer at substantially over the current bid.

    What's its weight and catalog description?

    Yeah, though I don't collect ancients, like robinjojo, I also like the owl.

    In fact, both sides look so good, could this coin possibly be a fake?

    Not sayin', just askin'.

    Then I would expect the price to go significantly higher as @robinjojo indicated.

    If you have to ask then you should probably not.

    If I was into ancients and wanted that coin I'd say no to your question.

    You're in the driver's seat. Pedal to the metal, stop, or put it reverse the choice is yours! Good luck!

    I would love to own that coin, but I would not try to buy it. I would never have seen it without this thread so I would ensure the OP was no longer interested before making any move on it. Besides, it's probably going to sell well past what I would want to pay.

    After all this frenzy around it, I would be interested to know how much it will sell for in the end.
