<p>[QUOTE="4to2centBC, post: 3012597, member: 76181"]I want to meet Clio. No joke. I want to meet this person. Their taste and reach have me in frustrating awe. AND I can't escape them. They just stomped on the second fourree I have bid on in the last year (third coin overall.) I'm currently in a WTF state of mind. First the Athenian Owl, then the RR Janiform didrachm (not a fourree)......now an ATG tet. Each time, I threw in a high, last second bid. Each time the bid has not been high enough.</p><p><br /></p><p>My only consolation is that I had a bid set up on the lesser example in the auction. ....just in case. I won it at the minimum.</p><p><br /></p><p>Lost this one</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://romanumismatics.com/uploaded/thumbnails/db_file_img_173945_544x262.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Got this one</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://romanumismatics.com/uploaded/thumbnails/db_file_img_173946_544x262.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Kingdom of Macedon, Alexander III 'the Great' Fourrée Tetradrachm.
