<p>[QUOTE=&quot;IdesOfMarch01, post: 3221824, member: 39084&quot;]You&#039;re not going to get a definitive answer to your question, since there are so many factors that enter into providing such advice to someone who isn&#039;t known on this site.&nbsp; Here are some of the reasons why it&#039;s difficult to answer your question:</p><p><br /></p><p>1. What is your purpose in purchasing this coin?&nbsp; Is it just a curiosity because it&#039;s ancient, or are you interested in the period it represents?</p><p><br /></p><p>2. Do you plan to collect more ancient coins, or just this one that you can look at and possibly show to others as an example of a surviving ancient coin?</p><p><br /></p><p>3. Do you like the depiction of the emperor on the obverse?&nbsp; Is there something on the reverse (which you didn&#039;t show) that appeals to you?&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>4. Are you concerned about its authenticity?&nbsp; If so, you&#039;re much better off purchasing ancient coins from a dealer at <a href="http://www.vcoins.com" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.vcoins.com" rel="nofollow">www.vcoins.com</a> than from EBay.</p><p><br /></p><p>5. Are you interested in this coin just because it&#039;s cheap?&nbsp; If so, that&#039;s OK but if you have a bigger budget and longer term interest in ancient coins, there may be better starter coins for you to acquire than a random one from EBay.</p><p><br /></p><p>Just a few things to think about.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
