<p>[QUOTE=&quot;red_spork, post: 2673691, member: 74282&quot;]Antony and Cleopatra are definitely up there on my list of coins I&#039;d blow my budget for, and the tetradrachm is an especially interesting type and at least in my mind right up there with Eid Mar in terms of historical interest, but as much as I like these types, both are so far out of my collecting league, at least budget wise, that I don&#039;t think I&#039;ll ever find an example.</p><p><br /></p><p>That said, I do have a coin that was my white whale that I captured last year: the &quot;staff&quot; Victoriatus. I posted the story of it <a href="https://www.cointalk.com/threads/i-really-took-this-coin-to-the-cleaners.287281/" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.cointalk.com/threads/i-really-took-this-coin-to-the-cleaners.287281/">in this thread</a> so I won&#039;t recap the whole thing here but I&#039;m still kicking myself over the fact that I was able to get one of these and in such excellent style and condition for the type no less.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]595872[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
