<p>[QUOTE=&quot;AncientJoe, post: 2393577, member: 44357&quot;]For what it&#039;s worth, that coin is not the same one as sold in Roma III. They were just referencing a similar coin and its price. Additionally, you may notice that many coins in some auction houses &quot;sell&quot; for just the opening bid but then appear in a subsequent sale at a lower estimate/opening bid... some repeating this cycle several times.</p><p><br /></p><p>And finally, while grade is a factor in determining price, it is not the only factor. Saying a coin is &quot;identical&quot; is very unlikely. Even slightly finer dies could cause a sizable jump in price. Better centering, a more historic variety, metal quality, less marks, etc. will all come into play as well.</p><p><br /></p><p>So, while it may be indicative of an overall trend to see what one coin sells for at a given point, it is merely a snapshot and does not correlate to the price of another coin, even one from the same dies (especially across many years, where a hoard could have been dispersed, bidders could have left the market, etc.)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
