<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Mike Margolis, post: 2978450, member: 88401&quot;]Thanks Parthicus. It just seems that someone of the major sellers or auction houses would have sometime or other invested in some market research to get some ballpark figures on who is collecting what, or how many people are buying what. Not like individuals names etc. but just general demographics to target their advertising, shows and all. You see a lot of Parthian Drachmas- they are intriguing and interesting, they are popular enough that i had one as a teenager in the 60s when I basically hung out at Alex Malloy&#039;s booth at the White Plains coin shows and a couple stores in NYC.</p><p>This here coin cost me 12.50 plus a few dollars shipping. If I don&#039;t keep it I will find some student who may retain their interest in coins and appreciate that there are very few around even if they may not be of great value monetarily. i have one student who is kinda of obsessed with the ruthless tyrants in history as some pre-teen boys especially sometimes enjoy that. He would be quite interested in Orodes II if it is true that he conspired with his brother to murder their father. He told me how much he knew about Caligula so right now he is researching out Caracalla for a coin I had kicking around of his. I told him don&#039;t worry I think he was just as bad as Caligula![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
