<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 1046107, member: 19463"]Probably nothing or very little. Everything is supply and demand. Very few people care. I have known a couple collectors over the years that sought out such things but they usually paid according to the condition and this Ptolemy coin is not great. The Constantius II is a decent coin but next to no one collects minutia on latte Romans so to get a bump in price would require an auction attended by two people who wanted that coin. The difference between these an modern coins is modern collectors have to look very closely to find any difference however minor if they want a 'variety'. Ancients are nothing but varieties and no one has any hope or desire to get the complete set. If you want an MS65 US overdate all you have to do is write a check to one of several specialist dealers. If you want either one of these coins, you might have to look a while but when you found one you would be able to pay from petty cash.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
