<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 1952840, member: 19463&quot;]The Lottery question goes both ways.&nbsp; Perhaps some coins will pay off like a winning ticket but which ones??? I&#039;m interested to see if the recent scholarship on owls will make a price difference for certain 4th century coins or if all will continue to be priced only according to condition.&nbsp; There is a steep difference between some of the &#039;better&#039; 5th century types and standard Classicals and all 5th century coins outperform later types of equal condition.&nbsp; Having a coin used to illustrate the article can&#039;t hurt but a lot of the question of winning the lottery depends on how much you spend on tickets before the numbers hit.&nbsp; There are many owls on the market now at such high prices in relation to their quality that I doubt they will be winners in my lifetime.&nbsp; When today&#039;s teens are my age????</p><p><br /></p><p>What do we now expect from a $200 owl?&nbsp; $500?&nbsp; $1000?&nbsp; What does a $1500 coin have to have to offset having a test cut?&nbsp; If we only knew the numbers that will pay, we could buy the right tickets.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
