[QUOTE="Valentinian, post: 7950408, member: 44316"]Good advice. [USER=115909]@Gam3rBlake[/USER] , you bought it, so someone else might. I wouldn't bet on it, and if they did, they might like a second Gordian III (or a tenth!) I think [B]any[/B] ancient coin can sell on the CT sale forum [B]if it is not overpriced[/B]. However, private collectors often seek a profit, regardless of the original price or current value, and consequently usually overprice their coins. Dealers, say, vcoins dealers, have stocks of hundreds or thousands of coins that mostly don't sell at asking prices (The fixed prices you see are all prices at which the seller has not yet found a buyer) even with the huge audience vcoins has. If you have a few ancient coins to sell and a limited audience to possibly sell them to, they probably won't sell unless priced very competitively (i.e. low). If you have a coin you no longer want, what is the downside to trying to sell it on the CT "For sale" forum?[/QUOTE]
