<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 1605714, member: 19463&quot;]Nero&#039;s Egyptian coins are usually pretty rough looking largely due to the poor metal used for them.&nbsp; He issued a huge series of reverses including some really interesting combinations with his family members (Augustus, Tiberius, Poppaea) and a lot of boring eagles.&nbsp; Grade is everything when it comes to value on these.&nbsp; $30 is enough but not terribly out of line, IMHO. I&#039;ll challenge you to find an image of a really, really nice one.&nbsp; I don&#039;t have one to show so I&#039;ll show one that is still ugly but not Nero.&nbsp; This is Galba with Roma head reverse.&nbsp; I got it in 1989 for $15.&nbsp; Galba sells for more than Nero but not as much as you might think.&nbsp; Collectors really seem to prefer Eqyptian bronzes over the billon silvers.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]226544.vB[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
