I suspect this is the same dealer that sent me the wrong coin earlier this year but wouldn't send return postage so I kept the unwanted one. He is out of business to me. A+ If you have two Constans two standard coins you don't want, Perhaps JA would take them at a reasonable price. Perhaps, I would. The operative word here is 'reasonable'. Some of them are cheap and easy. I am slightly offended by the suggestion that this idea is even close to the most boring idea for a set. I could do worse. I will point out that a multi-billionaire could buy a nice set of 12 Caesars denarii in a week or two but all that money would be hard pressed to do what JA is attempting to do in a year. I'm just glad I didn't suggest he do a set of falling horsemen (~2200 coins). That would make me feel guilty. We both know someone who is trying for them (not me!). I have told myself that before. Sometimes I was right; sometimes not. Please send one of these my way. I have been looking for a long time since I missed the first one I saw decades ago. Can anyone tell what makes it different?
