<p>[QUOTE="TypeCoin971793, post: 3524535, member: 78244"]I would not call Julius Caesar denarii “readily available.” Sure there are examples available at any given time (so they are not an absolute rarity), but if I wanted a DICT PERPETVO denarius in decent condition, I would probably have to wait a while to find one that has the look I want and the price I am willing to pay. The fact is that I simply don’t have many readily available to choose from. The elephant denarius is a very different story.</p><p><br /></p><p>Also 7-8 available is not “very common”. I’d reserve that designation for 50+ available on the interwebs at any given time. 7-8 is just scarce.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Nah. More like the 1857 S SS Central America double eagles (several THOUSAND certified in MS grades and go for $6-10 thousand easily), 1907 High Relief double eagles (over 9000 certified mostly in MS and still go for $12000+), or 1884 CC Morgan Dollar (nearly 1 MILLION exist in BU condition, but good luck finding one for less than $200).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
