[QUOTE="Sallent, post: 2509960, member: 76194"]You could argue they still don't have too much interest. I've seen dealers selling these in online lots of 15 or 20 at around $10 to $15 per coin because because they can't be bothered to individually sort them out and list them. I've also noticed that quite a few ancient coin dealers fail to properly attribute their Indian coins, and I doubt many bother to try unless they truly specialize in them. It's kind of like the wild wild west of ancient and medieval numismatics. I don't mind the lack of Interest. It just means that there are more wonderful Indian silver coins at very low and reasonable prices, and with little competition for them. Personally, I really like the unique styles of Indian coins, and I could care less if eurocentric collectors and dealers don't.[/QUOTE]
