Wolfe (a favorite from the old days!) in 1987 and was my first ancient coin that cost over $100.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1411712[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>Drachms were a lot harder to cut and facing head even more so.&nbsp; That adds up to make #8 a worthy coin.&nbsp; I do not recall seeing one before. </p><p><br /></p><p>I am accustomed to being in the minority when it comes to coins but, of these ten, I find 6-10 more appealing than 1-5.&nbsp; The exception might be #3 but I <u>really</u> prefer the one owned by one of our CT family that was overstruck on an earlier flan.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
