<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 1847342, member: 19463"]Until this week I doubted that barbarous was 'not very popular' since I have known several people that collected them but the Triton sale closed with very few unsold lots and made me wonder. One was the ridiculous lot of 2007 low grade barbarous radiates for which no one bid. I see the lot has disappeared from the sale records but the fact that there was a lot that size suggests we will not run short of these 'not very popular' coins. Until we get a grasp on patterns within barbarous or can sort them at least to large issuing groups, I suspect the demand will continue to be limited to super oddball or in some way special coins. There remain a number of us who like the really odd ones. I'm less clear on what we might do with a thousand raggedy Tetricus Spes copies.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
