<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 1736942, member: 19463"]Here lies the question: Is there any reason not to overlook such things? Would you pay more for this coin than for an otherwise identical coin (reverse and condition) with normal portrait? As we collect for a longer time we may develop different interests and attitudes. Below is a similar V* mintmark coin I bought years ago and thought was pretty nice. There is even another with different mintmark so I guess now I need three. Are they sufficiently different that it is reasonable to own them all? An Aurelian specialist may have a hundred variations on this reverse. I am more likely to have 500 $50 Aurelian coins (average price, some more some less) than one $25000 low grade EID MAR or high grade aureus but, for now, I'm content having 25 Aurelians (probably averaging under $25). </p><p>[ATTACH]272937.vB[/ATTACH][ATTACH]272938.vB[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
