<p>[QUOTE="pprp, post: 8117595, member: 94602"]You were not the only one who missed it. The person who slabbed it and who a couple of months ago declared in CT -in the context of the Lottie collection- that he has a working knowledge of Weber, Jameson and Evans collections, missed it as well. None of the provenances I noted were on the slab. He also missed the provenance for another coin of the same dies which he slabbed and was sold by Stack's in August. I immediately recognized it as it was in the very same plate in the Naville IV sale as mine. Of course since I already had the Weber one and not being a greedy collector, I just passed on the Virzi one. At least a real collector managed to get it and I am very happy the coin escaped from the usual dealer flipping afterwards <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie96" alt=":vomit:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Regarding the activity of Chinese bidders, I doubt I ever faced them, I almost always lost to female bidders who were actually acting as agents.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
