<p>[QUOTE="CaptHenway, post: 5480997, member: 13813"]Many years ago while I was working at ANACS I took a fairly decent Denarius of Julius Caesar out of a flip, and it fell in two right down the middle onto the pad. Old crystalized fault line had failed in the mail. Though it was not our fault we offered the submittor his declared value, $800, and after asking us to send it back to him for a looksee he sent it back and took the offer. We gave it to the ANA Museum Curator and he glued it back together. It has been on display in the Museum off and on over the years.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
