I'm happy to aggressively ignore people looking to score a lottery ticket without understanding what they're holding. I suspect there are...
This is my strategy too: I sell coins if they a) no longer "fit" with my goals, b) no longer "bring me joy" (a la Marie Kondo), or c) to make room...

Congratulations on crossing off some particularly tough emperors with superb examples! I'm looking forward to your out-of-slab photos on the Otho...
I've always loved the coinage of Knossos and my stater is one of my favorite coins: [ATTACH] I was fortunate to be able to visit Crete a few...
