<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Al Kowsky, post: 5271529, member: 97383&quot;][ATTACH=full]1220388[/ATTACH] </p><p>Actually I did buy this coin with the idea of keeping it in my personal collection <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />. This coin was bought as a replacement to another solidus I sold at a Heritage auction pictured below. This coin type is very common &amp; Heritage has sold scores of them, however, they are very popular &amp; nice looking examples bring a good price at auction. The coin pictured below I bought from a Rochester, NY dealer for $150.00 over 30 years ago. I got the coin slabbed &amp; enjoyed it for a long time but wanted a better example, that&#039;s why I bought the first coin posted. I sold this coin at a Heritage auction two years ago for $960.00 &amp; was happy with the result <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie50" alt=":happy:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />. I thought NGC was generous giving a star to this coin. If you enlarge the image you can see a lot of die rust on the obverse.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1220389[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
