just want to alert peeps that the coin above seems to have been holed and plugged. I wrote to the seller a few days ago to point out that you can see the matching repair marks at 11:30pm on the Pharos side and 6:30pm on the Scylla side, at the same location, different metal, evidence of scrapes cleaning up where the hole was plugged etc., they acknowledged receipt of message but have not responded to the content nor changed the listing. So, am now posting online. No need to know where it is listed, just that it looks like a classic holed and plugged repair.
I would love an example of this coin in my collection, and I would likely entertain buying this coin if the seller acknowledged the repair and the price was commensurate.
Indeed! I wish they'd left it holed, since then it'd be my only chance to get one this nice! Ever since I saw this type I've thought it was one of the coolest Republican denarii
