<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 4830827, member: 19463&quot;]Lets make no mistake, CNG is a professional outfit compared to some of the outfits out their that claim to be worthy of your bidding dollars.&nbsp; It hurts less to pay CNG too much because they actually make an effort to deserve that buyer&#039;s fee. My one win also came yesterday but he was sensitive about his status (worst known of the three I have seen) so he asked that I try to show off his good parts to advantage.&nbsp; He asked nicely so here is a fine example of the Alexandrian eye, a drunk look on Liber&#039;s face and truly great vase detail.</p><p>Lot 143</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1168389[/ATTACH] </p><p>Of my coins, this may be the best of what the catalogs call an oenochoe but I&#039;m not fully convinced that the die cutter was thinking of that shape due to the handle loop at the bottom and tall stem.&nbsp; Do we have any vase experts here? It really is hard to interpret things cut in this size.&nbsp; Notice there is a rim indicated at the top of the vase. I do not want to hear people call the Alexandrian coins crude.&nbsp; They are what they are.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
