I wonder if they just took the RIC prices straight from the book and used those? It looks like there is a 21% BP on the sale as well (a growing...
I saw that this morning as well. Their prices are far off on the Greek coins also - I'd love that Kimon dekadrachm for the 30K estimate! I think...
I should have posted this perspective earlier but I'm just now going through and reimaging several of my coins. Here's the tortoise straight on...
I love this type as well - and yours is a very solid example! I imagine the toning around Athena's crest looks quite nice in person.
I actually made well over 10% on it... in ~9 months. The profit paid for the Aegina stater I posted earlier and a few others :)
I've posted this before but I recently sold it for a profit that I couldn't pass up, so I'll give it a "going away post" here :) [IMG] Silver...

Here's the link I was going to post: http://tamron.myphotoexhibits.com/ It's quite a nice way to "display" coins and other art with a consistent...
It looks great here! I think this sort of gallery is a perfect way to showcase coins. I know of another website which displays them in a...
14500 Euro is indeed what it sold for. Coretech has the price listed before it's distributed back to the website/Sixbid:...
They produced a nice 3D image of the coin if it helps assess the quality:...
I've seen older auction catalogs (ca 1900) describe them as "three drops falling from a calyx". Here's a contemporary gold earring which was sold...

That Zodiac set sounds like a fantastic idea! I'll have to add that to my wantlist now as well...
