<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Orfew, post: 2554458, member: 74968&quot;]Hi Paul,</p><p><br /></p><p>To be clear, I have all 12 in silver but only 75% of them are in VF or better condition. The other 4 are below VF.</p><p><br /></p><p>Yes, you are correct. JC is tough if you want a portrait denarius. They are out there but there is a lot of competition for them so prices are high. The toughest for me were the Caligula and Claudius. I have added a second Claudius denarius to my collection, but I am still on the hunt for a second Caligula in silver. Again, both Claudius and Caligula are available if you look for them but they will be costly. The other one that can cause some problems is the Otho. His coins are available but they can be very pricey. I was lucky, the first ancient coin I ever bought was the Otho in my avatar.</p><p><br /></p><p>I know a few dealers I trust and they are always on the lookout for denarii of JC, Claudius and Caligula. As far as I am concerned, one cannot have enough denarii of those three.</p><p><br /></p><p>Good luck with you own hunt. It is a fun journey.</p><p><br /></p><p>As for the quinarius, I will probably use it as trade bait.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
