<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Orfew, post: 3557187, member: 74968&quot;]I would have bought the second one as well and for the same reason- the detail on the new one makes this a must have imho. I would love to have both. You can see a progression from little wear to more wear by having both.</p><p><br /></p><p>I am also reluctant to have 2 of the same coin but I also made an exception.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here was my first example. Really I never thought I would need another example as this one is a really nice coin. In my case the second coin was not an upgrade regarding condition.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]945672[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>I added the second one even though the condition is not as good as the first. Why? I thought it was interesting that the 2 examples were from different obverse and reverse dies.&nbsp; That was interesting because this is a rare issue and it would not have been unusual that the first and second coins shared at least one die in common. The fact that they did not was enough reason for me to buy the second coin. Besides this is an important issue for Vespasian that appears rarely on the market. This coin is also interesting because Vespasian was copying a reverse from a denarius of Claudius. </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]945670[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
