<p>[QUOTE="Severus Alexander, post: 2875063, member: 84744"]You're most welcome! That coin is rather a specialist item, so lots of knowledgeable people would have missed it. (Note that it's Constantine II... if you say "Constantine" people assume you're talking about Constantine I.) Also, you shouldn't have fantasies about selling it for a thousand bucks. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> I got mine for a hundred, from a dealer who knew what it was. I think that was a good deal, and it's certainly a big premium over your average GLORIA EXERCITVS type, but specialist items are just that, i.e. not in overwhelming demand. </p><p><br /></p><p>This type is historically significant, your other R5 probably isn't, so would command even less of a premium. But I look forward to seeing the photos![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
