<p>[QUOTE=&quot;John Anthony, post: 2706929, member: 42773&quot;]I think the bronze of Mesembria is quite rare. It&#039;s the first one I&#039;ve ever come across in real life, and I&#039;ve only seen a few recorded at auction. <a href="https://www.cngcoins.com/Coin.aspx?CoinID=236569" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.cngcoins.com/Coin.aspx?CoinID=236569" rel="nofollow">Here&#039;s one</a> at CNG and another at <a href="https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=2370944" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=2370944" rel="nofollow">NN</a>. There&#039;s nothing wrong with those coins of course, but they just don&#039;t have the commanding style of yours, and yours appears to be struck from much fresher dies. It was a surprising find - you never know what&#039;s going to turn up when some older collections get sold, which is what happened at Baltimore. (It behooves one to get chummy with dealers that will set aside the new stuff just for you.)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
