[QUOTE="Nvb, post: 8121309, member: 99531"]I have to agree your #1 and #2 were also my favourites. The Olympia stater is a very appealing and rare example. Considering the universally recognizable history I am often surprised these coins do not command higher prices in general. I was lucky enough to acquire my own at a deep discount - a 96th Olympiad stater purchased in 2020 in a private sale. It’s not quite as nice or as scarce as yours, but I’m thrilled just to own one at all Regarding the Hidrieus tetradrachm - you may recall I took a keen interest in that coin but came up just short on the day. I agree the facing portrait is very well executed and of a lovely style. The auction listing didn’t show the tone as nicely as your video and that just adds to the appeal. Beautiful coin. After there it was tough to choose between 5,7 and 10.. but they’re all great coins I’d be happy to have in my collection. Same goes for all the other coins on this list.. Nice touch with the video top 10! It’s such a nice way to display your coins, perhaps this will catch on :)[/QUOTE]
