<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Mikey Zee, post: 2391083, member: 72818&quot;]I decided to post this somewhat scarce, heavily worn and large bronze for discussion---obviously not for &#039;admiration&#039; LOL. It caught my eye due to the &#039;unusual&#039; reverse and because it was listed as a 32 mm sestertius of Antoninus Pius. The seller&#039;s estimate seemed more than a bit inflated at $125.00 and I initially valued it at about $20-$50 shipped and I later increased that to $50-$75 due to the scarce reverse (and size). Of course higher grades of this popular/trendy type can be a bit pricey. And what better place to &#039;talk&#039; about a coin than Coin Talk<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Please feel free to post any coin you feel is relevant and don&#039;t hesitate to offer your comments or opinions.
