[QUOTE="Curtis, post: 24887853, member: 26430"]Here are several coins from an "Albert Reeves Collection" that seem very likely to be the same collection (hefty Greek & RPC bronzes), and the time frame fits. (Formed largely in the 1980s.) Clearly unrelated to Charles Reeve, since there's an "s" at the end of this last name.
