Message:: [QUOTE="Orielensis, post: 5218216, member: 96898"]That's a beautiful new addition to your collection! I'm glad you and [USER=98035]@Finn235[/USER] could work out a deal. Coins circulate quite a lot between CT members. I consider that to be good thing – it's nice to get coins from other collectors whom you know to have appreciated them, and equally nice to know that those you decide to sell end up in good hands. Thanks to [USER=84744]@Severus Alexander[/USER] and the fabulous last two AMCC autions, I have quite a number of coins previously owned by other CoinTalkers, including but not limited to these:[ATTACH=full]1215982[/ATTACH]Lucania, Poseidonia, AR Nomos, ca. 470–445 BC.
