I'm going to play a little loose with the "around $100"... This one shipped was $77. The mirrors don't come across in the GC pics at all, but they...
I have no idea about VAMs, but I like this one at 64. Reverse is pretty clean, but a couple of those hits look deep.
So were these used and traded as coinage? Both of the examples shown here appear quite worn.
I know a lot of the big traders are just buying paper. Little guys like me want the real deal. And honestly, I'll get back in if it stabilizes in...
Aes formatum are cool. I've seen plenty of dolphins, but I'm not sure I've seen a shell before. That looks cool.

Congrats. That's a good price for both buyer and seller.
A collection of coins with cool hats suits you perfectly, milord... to pair with your fanciest of hats.
Funny thing is, these are not duplicates. One is an O-108, the new one is an O-108a... they are two different die states. Serious CBH collectors...
I've never sold to them, but I've bought from them many times. Flawless transactions every time.
