[QUOTE="TIF, post: 3142868, member: 56859"]Another very interesting matchup! Without saying how I spent my other two votes, I will say I voted for Bing for best bargain. I've recently gone through ACsearch checking prices and availability for Speculatorum denarii and did so again just now, plus I did the same for the Nerva denarius. I did not give any weight to the different obverse legends for the denarius. Perhaps that wasn't fair, but I was just going with the factors important to me and precise dating for an Imperial coin doesn't matter much to me unless there is some other well-known event which makes the date notable. Even though in absolute terms RC's coin was less expensive, and at a glance you might think Bing's wasn't a bargain, in my opinion Bing did very well to pick up that sought after coin for $575. To clarify, I did not remove his goiter. He came to me post-op :D.[/QUOTE]
