<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ken Dorney, post: 3104089, member: 76086&quot;]About 25 years ago I had a really sublime sestertius of Aelius but it unfortunately had an oval pit on the obverse in the field.&nbsp; A very well known and respected dealer stopped by my table and looked at the coin and remarked that he could place one of these marks into the field and increase its value dramatically.&nbsp; I thought he was joking, but he was serious. He decided not to buy the coin as the pit was a little larger than the stamp should be....saved me from an ethical dilemma.&nbsp; I didnt want to sell it to him if he was going to do that.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
