<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Roerbakmix, post: 4833404, member: 100731&quot;]A friend and I were eyeballing a recent antiques auction. Included was a &#039;minting error antique coin&#039;, with a provenance of 1960-1980 and the name of the previous collector. We were outbid at our max bid of 180€ (including the 25% and postage, the total amount would have been around €250 or ~$300). </p><p><br /></p><p>The pictures were poor:</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1168833[/ATTACH] </p><p>and no weight and diameter was reported. When asked, the auctioneer said &#039;between 19-20 mm and around 7.8 grams&#039;. </p><p><br /></p><p>I could only find one brockage tarentum nomos:</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1168834[/ATTACH]</p><p>CLASSICAL NUMISMATIC GROUP, INC., MAIL BID SALE 66, LOT 76</p><p>sold at 675$ in 2004. </p><p><br /></p><p>Based on this information, what is your opinion on this coin? Should you have bid more? Do you like it? Do you know similar examples? Etc.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
