<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 1005238, member: 19463"]It is a matter of opinion. I like coin 2 because of the eye appeal despite being the more common, later version. It is nicer for its type than the other two are but should be cheaper than #3 because of the size. I also like coin 3 because it is the larger, earlier version (as is 1) but has decent surfaces. #1 is polished and would be my last choice. I'm a cheapskate and consider any of the three overpriced at $50. All three are Cyzicus mint. It is generally easier to find a nice FH from Antioch and I'd suggest that if you are going to have just one. </p><p> </p><p>RaceBannon's coin is nice suffering only from being part legend in the mintmark (still attributable). The ruler is Constantius Gallus rather than Constantius II and it bothers me that the holder does not list this difference. IMHO this one is worth about the $40 quoted. If the legends were on the flan completely, it would be worth more.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
