<p>[QUOTE="Basileus Antialcidas, post: 5172338, member: 112443"]I saw this Antiochos III tetradrachm and really felt in love with the portrait, so I ordered it. I understand that it is completely personal if someone likes a coin or not but I would really like to read some opinions. I bought it in a lower price than normal because of a cut in the ear. Do you find it undesirable in your opinion due to this, or it doesn't really matter. Have also in mind that as a student with a part time job buying a tetradrachm is really hard for me to find the money, so small problems that don't retract for me much from the eye appeal is my only way to obtain some really expensive otherwise coins. Also what could this cut be? I am really wandering. Could it be a test cut so small and so precise? Maybe type of grafitto? Again I want to clear, I made my mind and ordered it, I am just asking to read some opinions from other collectors on this matter. Thank you all for your time in advance![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
