<p>[QUOTE=&quot;IdesOfMarch01, post: 2694717, member: 39084&quot;]My observations/opinions on a couple of the recent coins shown:</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>The portrait style of this coin is among the best you&#039;ll find of Tiberius on a tribute penny.&nbsp; Despite missing Livia&#039;s foot and part of the reverse legend, this is a very desirable coin and would be graded EF by any auction in which it appeared.&nbsp; You&#039;d be lucky to find this coin for less than $1,500 today.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>This portrait is also quite good, the centering is excellent, and it&#039;s only moderately worn.&nbsp; It was a bargain if you got this recently for an estimated $480.</p><p><br /></p><p>My own coin was purchased over nine years ago so its price isn&#039;t useful in today&#039;s market, but its style is very similar to Cucumbor&#039;s:</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]605195[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>TIBERIUS&nbsp; 42 B.C. - 37 A.D.</p><p>AR Denarius (3.63 gm.)&nbsp; &quot;Tribute Penny&quot;&nbsp; Lugdunum&nbsp;&nbsp; RIC 30</p><p>TI CAESAR DIVI AVG F AVGVSTVS Laureate head of Tiberius r.&nbsp; Rev.
