[QUOTE="Finn235, post: 4590453, member: 98035"]Interestingly, I feel like some of the group lots went quite cheap. I won this lot [IMG]https://www.romanumismatics.com/catalogue_images/auction/xlarge/6020.21.3_1.jpg[/IMG] Which for two Fulvia quinarii and an Antony/Lepidus quinarius, I think was fairly cheap. The Flaccilla is also a worthy coin; the AE4s are common, but not in that condition. Also this lot I feel was a steal for 40 pounds below the estimate [IMG]https://www.romanumismatics.com/catalogue_images/auction/xlarge/20876.1.320_1.jpg[/IMG] About 6 pounds per coin; and assuming no major damage to that rouble, it's worth about 50-75% of what I paid for the whole lot. Most of the coins in here are worth a fair bit above their silver content alone, so perhaps this just wasn't the correct venue for assorted early 20th century silvers as a lot? I'm working on the assumption that the Caracalla in this lot is smoothed and a little bit tooled, but assuming it isn't an outright fake, I still got a good deal on this lot. The example on Wildwinds is moderately corroded and still sold for 4x what I paid for this lot. [IMG]https://www.romanumismatics.com/catalogue_images/auction/xlarge/6020.21.14_1.jpg[/IMG] Also got my FedEx confirmation that my winnings since March have shipped, although it says estimated time of delivery is 30 minutes ago, and the coins are still in London[/QUOTE]
