<p>[QUOTE=&quot;AncientJoe, post: 2817240, member: 44357&quot;]That&#039;s correct - I sold it a handful of months ago. I really enjoyed it but ultimately I wasn&#039;t satisfied with the quality (centering, scratches, and metal) and also have been advised by many people that, for this issue in particular, I shouldn&#039;t settle for a non-pedigreed example. There have been a few small groups which have come to market and getting a pedigreed coin is much safer for all of the cultural property restrictions going on today.</p><p><br /></p><p>Happily, as ancients go, it isn&#039;t &quot;rare&quot; and one only needs to wait to find a suitable coin. There&#039;s a chance I will regret the decision if more well-heeled US collectors enter the market and swipe up all of them at whatever price they want because of their prestige (I sold mine to a US collector for a healthy profit).</p><p><br /></p><p>But, in the meantime, I have acquired a number of great coins with the funds which has allowed me to flesh out more of my collection, so I can&#039;t complain![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
