<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2885426, member: 19463&quot;]I believe this was the case here also.&nbsp; The dealer had a page of items he had pulled out to write up when he had time and I pointed out a couple that I suggested he might want to &#039;upsell&#039;.&nbsp; Of course, these were things I already had or I would have bought them.&nbsp; Most of the coins in these bags were well sorted and survivors of European markets.&nbsp; They were not a hoard.&nbsp; Ancient coins of this sort are not rare.&nbsp; I almost bought a denarius because it had a 3x2mm paper label glued into the reverse field with number &quot;210&quot; printed in the smallest human handwriting I ever had seen.&nbsp; I obviously was from an old collection when such practices were common and acceptable.&nbsp; I had the type and mine was nicer.&nbsp; I have enough ordinary duplicates. While at the show I helped a dealer separate his Severans by mint (he had at least one from each but was unsure he had them right).&nbsp;&nbsp; Building relationships is a good idea (and not just in coins).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
