It was an interesting piece, but I bet you most of us would have very different uses for that kind of coin money. I could buy 20 of the most gorgeous gold Sasanian coins you could ever lay your eyes on for that kind of cash. We are kind of a fickle bunch, huh? I think a similar US coins would get most US collectors drooling, and we are like, "Eh, I would take a $5000 coin that is more interesting to me".
