[QUOTE="Gallienus, post: 3420764, member: 42034"]I'm going to be teaching some classes to 6th grade high school students on Ancient History as Shown by Coins. I thought I'd do a comparison on some ancients prices then & now, which is why I'm looking for the quote. I'm aware of the Heritage tremissis of Romulus Augustus which sold just this past January realizing $66K: with commission. It had scratches on both sides. The NFA # 5 should be around 1978. Note that rare coins exploded pricewise during the 1970's. My 1st Roman Coins by David Sear, 1974, lists the coin at 1,250 pounds sterling. I don't have a Romulus Augustus but make do with a really nice tremissis Julius Nepos (474 - 475 AD, Ed Wadell) so I have to apologize for the substitution.[/QUOTE]
