<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Sallent, post: 2988859, member: 76194&quot;]Well, I wanted to do silver too, but the difference between an all silver imperial collection and a collection that&#039;s a mix of silver and bronze imperial,&nbsp; is the difference between $3000 and $7000.</p><p><br /></p><p>Caligula is the expensive one in silver. You&#039;d think it would have been a dude like Otho, but even the most budget beat up silver Caligula will run you near $2000 these days. And Claudius will run close to $1000 for his more common imperials in budget conditions. And budget Galba denarius are around $400 or so.</p><p><br /></p><p>All of those are attainable to me in silver if I sell some of my duplicate emperors and only keep one coin of each emperor, and save a little for a few months on top of that...but here is the thing, for the difference in price I could afford to put together a second set of 12 Caesars in mixed bronze and silver imperial coins. Or better yet, I could afford to fill 2 dozen additional holes in my collection. Personally I&#039;d rather do that because deep down I&#039;m one cheap (censored). Maybe I&#039;ll do it one day, but only after I&#039;ve filled many of the basic&nbsp; holes in my collecting areas that I&#039;m still missing.</p><p><br /></p><p>If you are going to go for the all silver approach, I wish you the best and I can&#039;t wait to see it.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
