[QUOTE="KSorbo, post: 24814242, member: 56370"]Wow. As always you have so much eye candy that it’s hard to know where to start. The Athenian Owl is impossible not to like and has a lot of bling. However, the three sestertii, especially the Claudius one, stand out to me more due to their surfaces, and had to be a lot harder to come by than the owl. The 1548 Saxony Thaler is cool due to its early date. I have a Three Brothers but have yet to acquire any other dated coins from the 1500’s. Also the Pillar Dollar is fantastically original looking. Those are so tough to come by problem free. I can see why you had to “grossly overpay” for the 1799 Bust Dollar. With that level of eye appeal there must have been a lot of bids. The 1886 dime looks really clean for the grade as does the Lafayette. I’m glad I’m not the only one who can’t settle on a specific category or time period. There’s so much interesting and historical stuff out there and I’m in total agreement with your approach.[/QUOTE]
