[QUOTE="Fugio1, post: 4019132, member: 89970"]NYINC coin #2 - Stater of Corinth [surprise] I had no intention to buy a Greek coin at the NYINC, but this coin talked to me. I looked at the coin Friday morning, went out for lunch and couldn’t get it out of my mind, rushed back and probably gave away my poker face in the negotiation so perhaps paid too much for this common issue. I don't regret it at all. My Greek coin collection is now all of 5 coins. [ATTACH=full]1056857[/ATTACH] [SIZE=2][B]Corinthian Stater[/B] [B]Era[/B]: 345-307 BC.
