[QUOTE="zumbly, post: 2777224, member: 57495"]Nice group! I like the look of the Hadrians. They really do tend to wear well. Sometimes I wish those new to ancients wanting to buy uncleaned lots would consider mixed group lots instead. The coins are likely to be better (or even much better) and more varied, and there's plenty of fun and learning to be had in researching the types and chasing down attributions. On second thoughts, leave all the mixed lots to me! :D Seriously, mixed lots don't even have to be big ones. Yesterday, I was looking for some coins to photograph and came across this nice big (AE28) provincial of Elagabalus that I had no recollection of buying.
