<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ken Dorney, post: 2512673, member: 76086&quot;]I suppose I should comment more on the original question, though it may have been fairly accurately answered already.&nbsp; Caligula denarii are not as rare as one might think, though certainly scarce to rare (for reasons already explained).&nbsp; Obviously there is the question of popularity.&nbsp; Many books (and some movies, ahem, colorful???) have lent some desirability to the series. Also, people tend to hold on to some things much longer than others.&nbsp; Which would you rather part with?&nbsp; Caligula denarius of Gordian III Antoninianus?&nbsp; All of these things will have an impact in price and availability.&nbsp; As it stands now, one should expect to pay about $2,000 minimum for a decent Caligula denarius.&nbsp; Sure, there are fourees and other lower grade examples substantially cheaper.&nbsp; But, if one wants it, they have to pay the market price.&nbsp; The last one I had was maybe 20 years ago, and I sold it for $2,500 (VF).&nbsp; They are much more now.&nbsp; It is all a matter of resources and and commitment.&nbsp; If one does not have the resources, settle for a bronze.&nbsp; They can be obtained for little.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
