<p>[QUOTE=&quot;DonnaML, post: 4722106, member: 110350&quot;]By the way, I am strongly leaning today towards returning the coin for a refund.&nbsp; As attractive as I find it, and as interesting and mysterious as it may be, I think it would be very difficult for me to get past the knowledge that I spent that much money (I should emphasize that I mean for me, if not for many others) on something that&#039;s almost certainly a fourree, thinking that it was a genuine silver denarius. It makes me feel slightly sick to my stomach to think about it, and I&#039;m not entirely sure that I would get over that feeling.&nbsp; I might feel differently if I&#039;d spent half what I did -- even though the difference isn&#039;t so many dollars in an absolute sense, and people might think it&#039;s silly for me to draw that distinction.&nbsp; So unless I change my mind in the next few days, the coin will be somebody else&#039;s mystery to deal with, assuming that Herakles puts it back on the market. (If it does go on sale again, I&#039;ll be curious to see the asking price.)</p><p><br /></p><p>And perhaps someday I&#039;ll find another example of the same type (it certainly doesn&#039;t have to have the same control number(s)!) that isn&#039;t a hybrid, and looks equally appealing to me.&nbsp; I must say, though, that I don&#039;t see a single one that&#039;s as nice on either VCoins or MA-Shops right now, at anything close to a price within my comfort level.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
