<p>[QUOTE=&quot;RichardT, post: 3797614, member: 100005&quot;]You can get Byzantine solidi (i.e. Anastasius and after) easily for under $1200.

Solidi of Constantine the Great are unobtainable at that price. But you may be able to get solidi of Constantius II, his brothers or their successors for less than $1200 at the same venues.</p><p><br /></p><p>Aurei under $1200 are difficult if not impossible to obtain, unless they have major problems like heavy clipping, worn smooth, extensive damage.</p><p><br /></p><p>Sorry and to address your point of the cheapest source: there is no cheapest source. Auctions are generally your best bet for a bargain.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
