[QUOTE="Mat, post: 1986133, member: 21445"]Recently I did a trade with one of my favorite dealers for this Galba tetradrachm. I parted with my galba denarius, which was pretty low grade, and some ho hum ancients I had. I did come out ahead by a decent amount but im hoarding $ for now. Some may not like the scratches, but I loved the chunky silver and the portrait was way better then my denarius. I dont find them distracting. Also I updated my 12 caesars tray with this coin and much higher quality. [img]http://s29.postimg.org/mogo1gk93/galbatet.jpg[/img] Galba (68 - 69 A.D.) AR Tetradrachm SYRIA, Seleucis and Pieria.
