<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Mikjo0, post: 162278, member: 3565&quot;]Well,ancient coins are sometimes hard to value.There are certain ones that go for fairly set prices but for most,it&#039;s just what the market will pay.The only listing for the coin you have is the one that You apparently found on Wildwinds,since your description is word for word from there.The auction info that goes with that coin (which is in REALLY nice condition) is here:</p><p>1190.&nbsp; TRAJAN. 98-117 AD. Æ Sestertius (24.14&nbsp; gm). Struck 113 AD. Laureate</p><p>bust right, slight drapery&nbsp; on left shoulder / Fortuna seated left, holding</p><p>rudder and globe. RIC&nbsp; II 628; BMCRE 966; Cohen 164. VF, black patina, some</p><p>smoothing, some of the details on the reverse slightly enhanced. ( est.$300)</p><p>CNG Mail bid sale #58, 18 Sept 2001, lot 1190.</p><p>&nbsp; Lot sold for $800.</p><p>Used by permission of CNG, <a href="http://www.historicalcoins.com" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.historicalcoins.com" rel="nofollow">www.historicalcoins.com</a></p><p>Personally I can&#039;t believe that anyone would pay $800 for this coin but who knows?..maybe they&#039;re very scarce.My rough guess on yours would be about $80--$150 ,about what it costs to get a VF Caligula or Hadrian sestertius.Nice coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
