<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Terence Cheesman, post: 6961307, member: 86498&quot;]Pprp made a hypothesis but I believe it to be incorrect. The coin was from a J Gomer collection and it along with some 33 other Greek coins were sold in Triton XXI. The coins ranged from&nbsp; fairly large group from Greek Italy to a couple of electrum staters from Kyzikos.&nbsp; It looks like the collector was simply selling either all or part of his collection. My suspicion is that my coin &quot;fell between the cracks&quot;. I have similar things happen to me in an auction though not with such a spectacular loss. In one auction I had two siligua of the later empire both were estimated at $100 dollars. The first one died got one bid so it sold at $60.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> The second one went for $600 <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie9" alt=":eek:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[ATTACH=full]1273585[/ATTACH] Valentinian II Ar Siliqua Lugdunum mint <span style="color: #ff0000">This is no longer my coin</span>&nbsp; I should note that auctions are basically a crap shoot. You just really do not know.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
