<p>[QUOTE="Gao, post: 1005229, member: 19409"]I'd definitely grab K first. I love that reverse, and I've been meaning to get a coin of Magnentius. I really don't care about a minor break like that, as it does do significant damage to the images, and what's left looks great. Heck, I have several coins worse off than that that I'm quite happy with. J would be my second choice, as I couldn't pass up a coin of Vetranio at that price. Third choice would be C, as I don't have a good quadrans at the moment (only a near slug that can barely be identified as a quadrans), and I would be quite pleased to finally have a Caligula coin. After that, I'd probably go for A or D, as I don't have many coins of India at all, and those look nice enough, though I might pass unless they were a little cheaper ($10-$15) if there were other coins around that were interesting me (my coin budget tends to be pretty low).</p><p><br /></p><p>As for why I wouldn't pick the others, the Gloria Exercitvs series doesn't really interest me much, so F and G wouldn't interest me unless they were really cheap (like $5). I know little enough about Greek coins that I wouldn't know what I was getting with E or I, and neither of them appeals to me much at the moment. I have no idea what H is, and while I've been meaning to pick up something like B, it's a lower priority.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
