<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Harry G, post: 7877106, member: 105282&quot;]Hi all!</p><p><br /></p><p>I bought this a few days ago from the &quot;Dara Antiques Museum&quot; auction on Biddr, and just thought I&#039;d share.</p><p><br /></p><p>It is an antoninianus of Aurelian from the mint of Cyzicus in... mediocre... condition. The bust isn&#039;t very detailed, and the reverse is quite smooth.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1357883[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>However, it is easily identifiable as the &quot;VICTORIA GERN&quot; type. It seems to be a spelling error (and is supposed to read &quot;VICTORIA GER<b>M</b>&quot;), although I can&#039;t seem to find any Aurelian antoniniani with the correct spelling of the reverse.</p><p><br /></p><p>Surprisingly, it only set me back 9EUR (which turned into about £30 after shipping and fees <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> ). However, the only 2 sold ones I can find (on VCoins) sold for in the hundreds, and I can&#039;t find any on acsearch.</p><p><br /></p><p>I also picked up this antoninianus of Diocletian for 4EUR... because why not...</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1357902[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>I think the coins were so cheap because Dara is a new auction house. I just hope they send the ones I bought...</p><p><br /></p><p>Show me some coins you bought that might be relevant <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
