[QUOTE="Sallent, post: 3191593, member: 76194"]Ok, here is as good as it gets as far as a reference to my coin. A CNG Auctions sample that sold for $850. Extremely minty except for some small high point wear. Also a pretty skilled celator, much more than the one who worked on mine (even taking into account the wear on mine). [ATTACH=full]824065[/ATTACH] Not sure I would have paid that much though, even in that condition. I think $500 is more like it, but that's just me. Sometimes people get carried away at auctions. [B]-VS-[/B] My coin...which I can live with at only $60, and glance at the $850 one and get a better idea what mine could have been when new. Not that I'm complaining, I'm pretty happy with my bargain Vespasian.
