Very cool issue and denomination!! Love Minerva and the owl!!

 

I got a 'thing' for faces facing right. I wish to acquire a coin with some sort of famous guy on the obverse and an eagle on the reverse. I suspect I'll never be able to afford such..

Well you're in luck then! Bust right/eagle is one of the most common combinations of devices on ancient coins

CNG's archives, search terms "bust right, eagle" yielded >7000 results and that's just one auction company.

Is there any particular person you have in mind?

 

But the least of those sold in excess of $300. Affordable to me stays $100 or less.

You'll find many in your target budget on Vcoins.

 

I figure as much. But something has got to give on the job front.
