[QUOTE="ambr0zie, post: 7980949, member: 80952"]Did anybody say bargains? I participated in an auction this month, although I was planning not to, as a few listed coins were interesting for me. I managed to get them. Prices were OK-ish, although the ones I really wanted were offered at previous auctions on the same auction house. Won. NOT paid. Relisted. I got them with bigger prices - well, can't complain overall. [ATTACH=full]1384994[/ATTACH] At 28 EUR + 20% fees this might not be a bargain, especially since the previous hammer price was .... 10. But I liked it. Was very curious about the color. In hand the coin doesn't disappoint at all! But the true bargain was this Gallienus from Zoo series. I only had one - with the centaur. [ATTACH=full]1384995[/ATTACH] I suspect the missing part of the legend (and other parts of the coin) are caused by a very worn die as if it were circulation wear, the coin would be a slug. 8 EUR for this + fees.[/QUOTE]
