[QUOTE="Curtisimo, post: 3180506, member: 83845"]Regardless of who wins we know that Jay is going to get pegged in the head by a green ball and Q is going to get poked in the side with an imperial standard... :blackeye::confused: epic battle! I thought even before I posted that this would be a contest on all three fronts. Q's coin has impeccable style with imperfect preservation while J has fantastic preservation but lacks the artistic flair of the Greek influenced didrachm (at least to me). Toss up. Q got a bargain, no doubt. In fact if I saw this coin for that price I would buy without a second thought. All Koson staters are a bargain at current market value IMO. Try to get any other imperitorial or early imperial gold in high grade for $1,200... not gonna happen. I was very interested in how the history would play out here. Hannibal era Roman Republic vs Brutus. Two of the most recognizable names in history. It's a toss up for me as well on this one but I do think Q takes a slight edge here with the fantastic write up.[/QUOTE]
