<p>[QUOTE="Only a Poor Old Man, post: 4751337, member: 111037"]I am new at coin collecting and have a tiny collection, but as far as I am concerned it is an easy question to answer. As you said, you had trouble finding examples of that coin on vcoins and ma-shops. The indication is that it is not a common coin, and it doesn't appear to be in large numbers in the market. Also, when it makes an appearance, it is usually in a condition worse than yours. And yours has everything going for it... Great flan, appealing surface, centered strike on both sides, good enough detail again on both sides, and what is for me the most important factor: fantastic and artistic design that epitomises why Greek ancients are so great and desirable. Unless you really need the money, keep it would be my advice... You will probably miss it when it is gone![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
