[QUOTE="Marsyas Mike, post: 2859487, member: 85693"]Nice coins Doug - I'd grab 'em in a NY minute! As for off-center, I know it's weird, but I really find off-center coins very attractive sometimes - something about that empty planchet and signs of the coin-striking tools? I don't know. I can't defend it. Here is a ghastly example - ghastly, but it's one of my favorites: [ATTACH=full]680500[/ATTACH] [B]Roman Republic Denarius D. Junius L. f. Silanus [B](90 B.C.) [/B][/B] Mask of bearded Silenus right, plough right below, all within torque / Victory in biga right, with whip and palm, carnyx beneath, D SILANVS L F in exergue. Cr. 337/1a; Junia 19; Sear 222.[/QUOTE]
