<p>[QUOTE="Blake Davis, post: 24704797, member: 91820"]Many years ago when I first started selling ancient coins, ca. 2000, I helped a friend sell about 300 hundred ancient coins that he had inherited from his uncle. The coins, which were in no particular order and all types, had originally been obtained by his uncle when his uncle was in France and Germany fighting at the tail end of WW II. Niether one of us knew much about ancient coins - the photographs were done on a scanner. We sold two of this type - Julius And Augustus, in this condition, for $60 for one and less than that for the other. Always wondered what happened to these and some others that were high grade, low price, but then again, it was a buyer's market then and ebay had many many dealers selling great coins - Ancient Auction House and Paganecoins were just two of them.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
