<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 3964423, member: 19463&quot;]I assume the antecedent of &#039;He&#039; here is Clio.&nbsp; The Tyrant collection is filled with the finest condition coins but lacks coins that have a lot of interest value that are not available in MS+ grade.&nbsp; Clio has superb taste in coins whether they are supergrade or just the best available&nbsp; examples of types I would want in about Good.&nbsp; In most cases, I can see why he wanted a coin even if it was a $100 one.&nbsp; The Tyrant has a very weak collection in silver and bronze compared to all the magnificent gold.&nbsp; I would by a book detailing Clio&#039;s collection in an instant because so many of his coins (judging from what I have noted him bidding on) have something really interesting going for them not considering resale value.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I do not know either of these people (at least to the best of my knowledge) but I believe that Clio has shown the level of knowledge that enables him to assemble a great museum level collection.&nbsp; I really do wish he participated here on Coin Talk because I would be interested in hearing what he had to say about why he bought certain coins.&nbsp; I would love to see Clio&#039;s top ten of 2019 list.&nbsp; I would be disappointed if they were all of interest based mainly on price or grade.&nbsp; Of the million or so types of ancient coins there are a few thousand interesting types that sell at most once in a generation. I suspect he owns in disproportionate number. I want to see them.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
