I have been looking at the Athenian owl coins for some time as I was flirting with the idea of collecting ancients. I really love that owl. But getting one that wasn’t “flawed” was pretty much out of the question due to cost. This one was a bit but not nearly the 600 or more I have seen a lot of. I have too have sellers remorse. I sold years ago a Whitman cent folder with 1909svdb, 1922 no d, 1955 DDO, you get the idea.... But needed the cash and had to do what I needed to do. They were not unc or anything but still nice enough.... regrets...</p><p><br /></p><p>[USER=96635]@Pavlos[/USER]: I agree I paid less than one without the cuts, but it still looks nice to me!</p><p><br /></p><p>[USER=113686]@Egry[/USER] : I agree it gives it more history!/ to your second post: I do love it!
