[QUOTE="arnoldoe, post: 5172589, member: 72712"]I won an auction for this coin earlier this year. [ATTACH=full]1211196[/ATTACH] A Quadrigatus from the Roman Republic, at 450 GBP plus Fees it was my most expensive coin purchase ever.. but... [ATTACH=full]1211200[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1211199[/ATTACH] When I got the envelope it was sealed in a plastic bag from Customs which said that it was damaged when it arrived in the country, + the envelope inside was ripped open (+ taped back together) + the coin was missing.. It seems that packaging the coins inside of boxes with sharp corners inside of a very thin paper envelope was a bad idea :angelic:[/QUOTE]
