<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2048384, member: 19463&quot;]I had no previous experience with Andronicus bronzes but a little research suggests to me that Steve&#039;s coin is better than most.&nbsp; There are many more gold coins of his offered but you never know if that is a sign that the bronzes are rare or if dealers avoid them because they look hard to sell.&nbsp; </p><p>[ATTACH=full]375738[/ATTACH] </p><p>The Isaac is an example of the problem with these coins.&nbsp; You generally have to choose between one nice side and one real mess or two lesser messes.&nbsp; You can get gold well struck on both sides but I felt lucky to have my &#039;balanced&#039; mess with two flat faces but other detail present.&nbsp; Steve&#039;s Isaac face is about as good as I could imagine but Mary paid the price.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
