<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2540030, member: 19463&quot;]Non-Widow&#039;s mite???&nbsp; Is that your term for a prutah that is not the anchor/wheel type?&nbsp;&nbsp; All four above coins are a good deal above average for these&nbsp; issues.&nbsp; I know there are millions of them so the top 1% means there are many nice ones but part of the reason I can&#039;t get into them is I see&nbsp; them as so very ugly and so expensive due to demand from non collectors.&nbsp; Does anyone know who started the idea od naming these types after the Procurators when the coins themselves never mention them?&nbsp; I&#039;m not saying that Festus was not on scene when the coin was issued in Nero&#039;s year five but other Provincials from other regions don&#039;t dwell much on local magistrates even when their names appear on the coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
