<p>[QUOTE=&quot;tibor, post: 26757983, member: 73385&quot;]Most of the membership here knows my main focus in</p><p>collecting is Early Dated European coins. I use Bob</p><p>Levinson&#039;s book as a guide. Starting my 26th year of</p><p>collecting these coins. My collection of these coins is</p><p>up to 400+ different coins. Last couple of years it&#039;s</p><p>been harder and harder to add new pieces.</p><p>&nbsp; I&#039;ve started collecting Byzantine coins with regnal</p><p>dates. I&#039;ve narrowed the focus to Justinian I follis&#039;s</p><p>that are at least 40 mm in size. A couple of weeks ago</p><p>I won a piece in a Nummitra auction. They are by no</p><p>means a large auction house, not like Kuenker or</p><p>Elsen. I paid for the piece and waited for the coin.</p><p>The coin arrived&nbsp; yesterday. Small box. Opened up the</p><p>package and the coin was TAPED to the inside of the</p><p>box. No plastic flip&nbsp; or paper envelope. The coin was</p><p>naked and taped to the inside of the box. Never seen</p><p>this before. In the morning I&#039;m going to send them</p><p>a few plastic flips and paper envelopes. I know the follis</p><p>isn&#039;t gem B.U. but still this is unacceptable.</p><p>&nbsp; Sorry about the long wordy post. I just thought I</p><p>needed to explain my situation.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
