<p>[QUOTE="Al Kowsky, post: 6584194, member: 97383"]High grade examples of Phocas solidi can fetch up to $900.00 at auction, & the purity of his gold coinage is about 98%. Examples with wear in the Ex F - AU grade can be had for $400-500. The mounted coin has a very strange pebbly surface, as if it was heated by a jeweler & I would stay far away from it <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie85" alt=":smuggrin:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />. Most of the coins used in jewelry have something wrong with them or they're imitations. The coin pictured below cost me $660.00 at auction, including buyers premium.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1264606[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
