<p>[QUOTE="Al Kowsky, post: 8285321, member: 97383"]robinjojo, I agree with the consensus that the coin looks good & isn't a fake, but you have to ask yourself would you be happy with this coin <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie12" alt="o_O" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />? I like the bee symbol in the field but the front of Alexander's face is not clear, & that would annoy me every time I looked at the coin <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie4" alt=":mad:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />. If the coin is the right price buy it, if its priced at top retail pass on it <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />. I'm not crazy about small coins, but when I saw this drachm 4 years ago I couldn't resist bidding on it & won it for $228.00. I didn't care about the price when I bought it & don't know what it would fetch at auction today. I ended up selling the coin to a cousin several weeks after I won it for exactly what I paid for it.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1463691[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1463692[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
