<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 5352687, member: 19463"]This is most certainly true and it might be possible to find very similar examples for twice the high price and be difficult to find someone to buy it from you for half the lower number. Many people value coins using a number of consideration that are hard to understand. If that coin were sold by a major dealer who researched past sales and discovered it was once part of a famous collection, $140 might be easily realized. If you list it on eBay with poor photos and no reputation as a person who is both knowledgeable and honest, you might have trouble finding a buyer for any price, even $20. What is the coin worth? That depends on what it is worth to you and you alone until you decide to sell it when the price depends on the opinions of annother person willing to buy. There is no 'Red Book' for ancients.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
