[QUOTE="Orfew, post: 2882584, member: 74968"]Speaking of my coin shown above, I will say that it has issues. There is some honest wear and the coin was struck off centre. Also, part of the trunk is off the flan. However, I would buy this coin again for the price I paid with no hesitation. There is a lot of good detail remaining on the coin. The elephant's legs have some nice detail and the name "Caesar" is rendered very nicely imho. There was another reason to buy this coin, I liked the provenance. This coin was once part of E.E. Clain-Stefanelli's collection. I like having pedigreed coins in my collection. I have 4 coins from this collection. Why did I pay 300.00 for this denarius? I liked it, I wanted it, and I felt 300.00 was more than a fair price. As for the other coins shown, I really like [USER=4298]@Cucumbor[/USER] 's coin. I would have no hesitation in spending 700.00 for that coin, but I would also buy the one I bought.[/QUOTE]
