<p>[QUOTE="panzerman, post: 3247346, member: 77704"]Well as everyone knows, I blew my coin budget<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> So, I had to forget about trying to get a mouthwatering AV Aureus from Galerius in FDC from Tauler Fau Herrero Auction/ Spain. So, I went for my second choice a EF AV Tremissis of Galla Placidia/ Ravenna Mint. I had to go to do snow clearing, so I put down a really low proxy bid. This coin/ same condition sold previous auctions for between 3500-5000. So, I could only afford 1400 Euros (hopefully make some extra cash doing odd jobs) When, I got home around 4:00PM/ auction was finished. So after checking my bids with auction, I ended up winning this rare Empress for 1301 Euros<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie50" alt=":happy:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie50" alt=":happy:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie50" alt=":happy:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie50" alt=":happy:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie50" alt=":happy:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie50" alt=":happy:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>AV Tremissis ND struck 455AD Ravenna Mint 18mm./ 1.46g.</p><p>obverse: Pearl Diademed/ Draped Bust Right</p><p>reverse: Cross within Wreath</p><p>She was the Mom of Valentinian III/ Wife of Constantius III</p><p>ERIC II rarity list #155[ATTACH=full]851318[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
