<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2491446, member: 19463&quot;]This is a great example of a Postumus type that usually comes in poor shape. Just try to find one as nice as Zumbly&#039;s Saeculi Felicitas.&nbsp; Part of it is the difference in alloy that occurred over a very short time period.&nbsp; After a time of ugly billon, we see the copper looking coins that can, once again be quite nice.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]527350[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>I don&#039;t have a Providentia of any variety.&nbsp; Can you explain what makes it so much more valuable than Bing&#039;s common one for example?&nbsp;&nbsp; Are there enough Postumus specialists that make rarity alone enough?&nbsp; I understand the up-price for many of his rare types that have added interest like the British Museum coin below but not the Providentia with wand down.&nbsp; </p><p><img src="http://www.kenelks.co.uk/coins/gallic/postumusherculesantobv.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
