[QUOTE="TIF, post: 4027682, member: 56859"]Good job! :) As you've probably noticed, seeing prices realized on ACsearch requires a paid subscription, probably not something you're inclined to do given your budget. Here's a workaround that works in many instances except for old/defunct auction houses or a few others who don't participate in auction aggregator websites or who don't maintain their own public database of prices realized: Take the auction company, auction number, and lot number and go to [URL='https://www.sixbid.com/en/']Sixbid.com[/URL]; click on the Completed Auctions tab; use the drop-down menu to select the auction company, then go to the correct auction number, then enter the lot number. For instance, the entry you found yields this listing in Sixbid, revealing the hammer: [URL]https://www.sixbid.com/en/numismatik-naumann/2683/roman-provincial-coins/2262612/syria-seleucis-and-pieria-antioch?term=766&orderCol=lot_number&orderDirection=asc&priceFrom&displayMode=large&auctionSessions=&sidebarIsSticky=false[/URL] [IMG]https://lot-images.sixbid.com/numismatik-naumann/1387-lots-of-ancient-and-2683/syria-seleucis-and-pieria-antioch-2262612-XL.jpg[/IMG] Starting price: 40 EUR Estimate: 50 EUR Result: 70 EUR Lot 766. SYRIA. Seleucis and Pieria. Antioch. Caracalla (198-217). Semis. Obv: AVT KA ANTΩNINOC. Radiate head left. Rev: Large S • C; Є above, Δ below; all within wreath. McAlee 705. Rare Condition: Good very fine. Weight: 3.23 g. Diameter: 15 mm. ... Don't forget that the price realized doesn't include buyer's premium. Your coin compares favorably to this example.[/QUOTE]
