<p>[QUOTE="Ken Dorney, post: 3086981, member: 76086"]I've always enjoyed threads about value. They can be quite entertaining. But I will give my opinion as a dealer, and I think they will be a bit closer to reality. I'll follow [USER=83845]@Curtisimo[/USER] here as I feel he's been very close:</p><p><br /></p><p>Alexander: $350. Its a really nice example, well centered, struck, excellent style, etc.</p><p><br /></p><p>Ptolemy: $150. I might be a bit low on this as they have increased in popularity in recent years but this example has some nasty corrosion on the obverse which will ding the value quite a bit. Perhaps even lower than $150.</p><p><br /></p><p>Constantius: $250. Not a great example, but anything gold sells well these days.</p><p><br /></p><p>Julian. $150. Maybe its just the photo, but it doesnt look anything special.</p><p><br /></p><p>Pius. Easily $150-200.</p><p><br /></p><p>Septimius. Well, I dont like tooled coins either, but you guys are a bit harsh on it! It still has value, and its value would entirely depend on venue being sold. In Europe this would still fetch about $300. Here, probably still $200. But it does look a bit like its cast, doesnt it? Then again, why tool a cast fake?</p><p><br /></p><p>Tyre. Fouree's have never held much in my eye, but $75 to $100.</p><p><br /></p><p>Tiberius. $200.</p><p><br /></p><p>Titus. $100 - 125.</p><p><br /></p><p>Trajan. $250 - 300.</p><p><br /></p><p>I think these estimates are realistic, but keep in mind that is what I could sell them for and I specialize in ancients. Your boss might get much more or much less for them. Who knows? The market is fickle.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
