[QUOTE="AncientJoe, post: 7975345, member: 44357"]Unpopular opinion: many aurei are overrated. Gold survives more easily than copper/silver so it's expected that they'll still exist. They're expensive just because they're gold but that doesn't make them superior. I'd rather have an exceptional denarius over an aureus any day of the week. That said, truly exceptional coins are worth the premium, provided they have superb style, pedigree, and other factors.[/QUOTE]
