<p>[QUOTE="Limes, post: 8347012, member: 101013"]Thank you for bringing this up, [USER=75937]@Roman Collector[/USER]. I was thinking about the following. It seems to me that a huge amount of high quality (and lesser too) coins are being offered this spring and that the amount of auction houses that offer auctions is more then ever. Can anyone recall this many auctions, ever before? I really can't keep up going through just the Roman imperial coins being offered, there are just too many. What is going on? Are collectors and dealers selling their collections/stock to benefit from the high prices? And despite the abundance of (quality) material being offered, I can't help but notice that prices are very strong. One would think that the surplus of material will lead to lower prices, but thats not the case. </p><p><br /></p><p>And talking about quality material, I'm also really curious how the <a href="https://www.biddr.com/auctions/nac/browse?a=2504&l=2798334" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.biddr.com/auctions/nac/browse?a=2504&l=2798334" rel="nofollow">EID MAR aureus</a> currently offered for auction by NAC will go, thinking of the previous one sold by ROMA for 3.2 mln pounds!
