<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2227795, member: 19463&quot;]All collectibles but ancient coins in particular are &#039;worth&#039; what supply and demand dictate.&nbsp; A few people specialize in the coins of lesser known emperors who ruled for a long time and made many coins.&nbsp; Other than those few, collectors soon have their fill of these coins so they remain cheap unless they are especially nice or especially interesting.&nbsp; I don&#039;t think Severus Alexander has any especially interesting types and this one is not especially nice.&nbsp; I do think it being the Antioch mint makes it &#039;better&#039; than it would be had it been from Rome but that might make it a $15 coin rather than a $10 coin to my way of thinking.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Lately I have been trying to sell some of my lower grade and lesser interest duplicates.&nbsp; The ones that return their &#039;investment&#039; after paying expenses and postage are things owned for 20 years.&nbsp; You will be able to sell this one for over $25, perhaps, in 2035.&nbsp; I&#039;ve made bigger mistakes this summer.&nbsp; That is the hobby as we know it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
