<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Orielensis, post: 3913337, member: 96898&quot;]I&#039;d say yes. Such coins may either have been sold by the auction house in the aftersale or returned to the consignor who sold it through another venue afterwards. In any case, the auction is part of the coin&#039;s provenance once it is published in the catalogue.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have some coins with unsold auction provenances, including this one. It appeared twice in different auctions but didn&#039;t sell. I bought it from another CT member on ebay. Since it came with an auction house ticket, I suspect the previous owner bought it in the aftersale.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1031429[/ATTACH]</p><p><font size="3">Western Celts: Volcae Arecomici, AE quadrans, ca. 42–40 BC, minted in the region around Nîmes (Nemausus).
