[QUOTE="robinjojo, post: 7387353, member: 110226"]Thank you. I was fortunate to have the opportunity to buy this coin back in the late 1980s, when a group entered the market. Harlan Berk had a few, so I decided to buy this coin during one of his buy-bid sales. Other examples showed up at auction. I know Ponterio sold a few, along with the other Agathokles tetradrachm type featuring Kore on the obverse. This is really no way that I could afford to buy one now, at today's elevated prices. Your thread motivated me to do a reshoot of the coin today, with somewhat better results.[/QUOTE]
