[QUOTE="Ancientnoob, post: 2111140, member: 44140"]I actually discovered the type last year when 2 were being sold by Alex Fishman. They where in the $350 range. Since I was trying to fill spots in my OFEC, naturally native Indian Post Gupta Hunnic opposition had to be represented. I wrestled with the idea of spending good money on ugly obscure coins.
