<p>[QUOTE=&quot;BenSi, post: 3073114, member: 95174&quot;]The lead ones were the start of the series, copper/bronze was in shortage at that the time of the coin reform. However we don&#039;t know why but they discontinued. my examples of DOC 37 are the best I have ever seen, Doc 32 is extremely hard to come by as well, none of the three have SBCV numbers because DOC came out after Sears work had been published. I do have many more examples&nbsp; than what my collection shows, the collection is really my best example of each coin. </p><p>The most interesting coin to me is DOC 41 , also an Alexius coin but at the time Hendy&#039;s first book was published no existing examples were known, he found the coin in&nbsp; catalog published a century earlier ,many doubted it actually existed at all.&nbsp; The coin was then found in a collection at an Istanbul Museum, I then found my example , to date only three are known. I think mine is in the best condition, it is a monogram of Alexius I.</p><p>Thanks for the welcome and the compliments of my collection.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
