<p>[QUOTE="svessien, post: 4523178, member: 15481"]I don’t know if you follow the European budget auctions these days. They typically have a large number of coins of the same type in the same auction, and often several types from a specific area in large numbers. At the same time you see these types showing up in large lots at the more mid-high end venues. It looks to me like recent hoards. </p><p>Another alternative is of course that it is inventory from dealers. Or black market material bought from countries where the administration has fallen apart. In any event, there is a lot of different provincial material for sale, and this market sucks up every obol.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
