[QUOTE="nerosmyfavorite68, post: 24860011, member: 134416"]Gosh, I don't know. I collect for the pleasure. I guess for giggles, aXF by wear (although it's probably higher than that, by wear)? VF by 1990 standards. A 1930's catalog would have been less than that. (edit: I changed that to XF by wear). What did you think of my grading scale (the pictures of my coins)? A bit too harsh? I was on a Byzantine kick over the summer. I was on the lookout for oversized 7th century coins,and this fit the bill. [ATTACH=full]1594189[/ATTACH] It's a whopping 36mm. The dealer attributed it to Constantinople, but I believe it's from Nikomedia. The style, and I'm pretty sure it says ..IKO. The coin is also quite attractive, for the type. It was actually in the top 10 of personal satisfaction coin purchases from 2023.[/QUOTE]
