<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Orielensis, post: 3787138, member: 96898&quot;]I just discovered that the catalogue for the 2nd &quot;Ancient &amp; Medieval Coins Canada&quot; auction is now <a href="https://www.biddr.ch/auctions/amcoinscanada/browse?a=808" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.biddr.ch/auctions/amcoinscanada/browse?a=808" rel="nofollow">online on biddr</a>! Since I know that many forum members have been very much looking forward to this auction, I thought it a good idea to post this here. </p><p><br /></p><p>AMCC 2 includes many fantastic coins, and [USER=84744]@Severus Alexander[/USER] has once more done a marvellous job with great photography and a large number of fascinating and informative small write-ups on single coins in the catalogue. It&#039;s definitely worth having a look.</p><p><br /></p><p>We&#039;ll have to wait until Nov. 9 for the auction, but in the meantime this is a good opportunity to show your wins from AMCC 1! Here are some of mine:</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1011250[/ATTACH] </p><p><font size="3">Alexander III &quot;the Great,&quot; Kingdom of Macedonia, AR tetradrachm, 325–323 BC, Amphipolis mint (under Antipater).
