[QUOTE="Mat, post: 1965988, member: 21445"]Well, its finally done. Got myself an Otho denarius in a grade I was comfortable with. I parted with a graded trade dollar and got this minutes later with much more money to spare so ive been off the wagon as of late. I have no problems sharing the cost, $236 total! Had a trusted dealer I buy my expensive coins from look at it and he OKed it and said it was a steal. I budgeted about $350. I can live with his name not being on the flan too. It was tricky to get pics of due to shine/wear. So it was shot under a 10x loupe instead of the normal 5x I use with my iphone. I didnt set out to get a 12 caesars started but when I added one after the other over time, cheaply mind you, it just had to be finished. Will have all the coins put in a virtual tray photo soon.
