<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Mikey Zee, post: 2542945, member: 72818&quot;]While killing a little time browsing at FAC auctions and their &#039;last chance&#039; postings I came across this trihemiobol that had a $17.00 winning bid. I have a different &#039;variety&#039; of it that I purchased last year which cost me about $75.00 shipped but a bit off center and of a lesser grade...... so I threw a $50.00 bid on this one to see if that came closer to the typical $75-$100.00 I believe this silver coin normally retails for. Remarkably, I now had the winning bid at $22.00 and actually won it for that plus combined shipping.</p><p><br /></p><p>The details are quite sharp and it&#039;s so well-centered that I&#039;m still wondering how I got so lucky LOL. Perhaps the small size just didn&#039;t appeal to those who viewed it at FAC?</p><p><br /></p><p>I guess I&#039;m opening the &#039;floodgates&#039; for all of you to post the smallest coins you have....and I know so many of you have examples that make this one seem like a &#039;monster&#039;.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thracian Islands, Thasos; circa 411-350 BC.</p><p>AR Trihemiobol, 11mm, .8 grams.</p><p>Kneeling Satyr holding Kantharos.</p><p>THAS/ION, Amphora</p><p>Seaby 1755; SNG COP 290</p><p>[ATTACH=full]545212[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
