<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 2291704, member: 19463"]Zumbly's lot works out to $200 a coin give or take after fluff is added. The picture shows no coin not worth $200. The fact that there was a detailed list even took away the surprise of the Social War denarius. The detailed list, however does show that the photo was not representative and there were many lesser coins included. It still was a reasonable price. The lot was first of three offering the collection. The second was bronzes and nice by my standards while the last was imitations and fourrees which went for more that I would expect. Triton XII had a lot of large lots and would be a interesting place to play the game where you try to figure why one lot went high and the next low. Maybe I'd be better off if I spent more time playing that game and less buying coins guaranteed to go low.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
