I observe that in many cases where the obverse is considered desirable, the scarcer reverses don't sell for as much more as one might think. With a common obverse (Domna, Maesa) there will be more difference for a rarity while spending really big on Soaemias means you are going for a quinarius or, at least an antoninianus. Trivia: what explains a denarius of Soaemias selling for over $10,000?
