<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 1895004, member: 19463"]At Baltimore after the show the riders of the bus from the Richmond Coin Club gathered at large tables to wait for the return of the bus. Many were comparing notes on the show and showing each other what they bought. I was writing out a list of NP coins removing them one at a time from one pocket and replacing then in another so I never had more than one coin showing at once. A member/dealer (he sells anything and everything including ancients) asked to see the one in my hand which happened to be the Gallienus. He said, "I would have though you would already had Gallienus." I said I did. He followed, "I heard some guy asking (a dealer) for Gallienus but I didn't know anyone collected him." The concepts that there were two people at one show who would consider buying something so common or why anyone might want more than one were foreign to him. I wished I had the statistic of just how many different types of Gallienus there are or how many site on the web list them but sometimes words just fail me.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
