<p>[QUOTE="ab initio, post: 2588942, member: 80317"]I find it unusual but also interesting for someone to collect such a wide range of ancients. What amazes me is that every coin you show is remarkable and special in some way. You seem really gifted in the ability to pick up each coin's special features and to explain to your "audience" their importance to you. I am particularly impressed by the clear detail of the Caulonia and the Tarentum. But perhaps because I never look at Roman coins more than just cursorily, the fine points of those have escaped me. The rarity of your Cretan coin is indeed something that justly awards it the number one position. A perfectly struck EF one of those probably does not exist and if it does the overstrilke charm would be lost. Would it be too much to ask you to put a dollar cost price next to each one? Then we could vote for the one that was the best bargain, comparatively.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
