[QUOTE="tibor, post: 3964974, member: 73385"]Tyrants collection maybe "weak" in silver and bronze but gold is where the EXCITEMENT is when it comes time to "show off" a coin collection. While those of us here appreciate coins in all metals, the general public gets excited about GOLD. For instance, the "Eids of March" coin is very rare and extremely rare with nice centering. Place it next to a "common" Roman gold coin and the public OOHs and AAHs over the gold coin not realizing the "Eids" piece is super rare. The coin shows where Tyrants collection is displayed usually have only a handful of Ancient/Medieval collectors that would appreciate the above scenario. This forums version of "Tyrant", [USER=77704]@panzerman[/USER], gladly and unselfishly shares his collection. Over the past year, I have seen dozens and dozens of GOLD coins from all centuries. Can't say I've seen any silver or bronze from him. Sure, I would like to see some nice silver and bronze pieces, but gold is where its at for the general viewing public. Just an after thought, Tyrant may not be ready to show his/her silver and bronze collections.[/QUOTE]
