<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Eduard, post: 550961, member: 8959&quot;]Thanks Guys,</p><p>We had a lot of fun at this show. It is not a major one, just 40 dealers or so, but it is&nbsp; awesome to look at all those coins. We ended up going back in the afternoon and chat with a dealer who had some interesting dug 16-17 century crowns. Amazing coins he had. </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks Ardatirion. As usual, i did my research AFTER buying the coin...Far as i can tell Commodus minted 3 Sestertii with Hercules/lion motifs. Apparently he fancied himself Hercules re-incarnated. The one i got seems to be the scarcest of the 3 going by coinarchives. </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Oh yes, pity we need to wait another 6 weeks for the next one!</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Scottish, you would love it at these shows. Row upon row of of European coinage from 20+ centuries of history. What i miss though are the U.S coins...they seem to have dried up in Europe.&nbsp; Never been to a show in France, but quite a few in the UK, Belgium, and the Netherlands. I like the UK shows the best.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>.</p><p><br /></p><p>Yes, there is usually quite a lot of coins. Unfortunately though, many have been cleaned. People here do not seem to mind so much...... </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Regards,</p><p><br /></p><p>Eduard[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
