<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 3661265, member: 19463"]This thread raises a question I have been pondering. We know that the recent hoard flooding the market has ade it possible for many people to get the owl of their dreams. Most people who have a desire for just one owl prefer the Classical style which is what is in the new group. Previously, many of us 'settled' for a late owl from the dumpy period because they wee cheaper. I wonder if the current ease of finding really nice, classical style coins will reduce the demand for the space filler owls and make the late, the worn, the off center 'factory second' owls harder to move. Certainly the coin in question is worth much less than the asking price but are we really at the point that you can get an owl tetradrachm for $65? The flood of really nice coins might have an effect on the higher end market or not depending on just how many people want multiples of exceptional coins. Will it also lower the price on the coin of styles not included in the new batch?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
