<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Marc Aceton, post: 2006862, member: 72101&quot;]Prices for better Augustus denarii are nowadays skyrocketing whereas nice bronzes seem to - cautiously speaking - scarcely make any headway even though they are not only considerably larger, but also more difficult to find in a good shape.</p><p><br /></p><p>For instance, this very nice Augustus dupondius fetched yesterday only 1&#039;050 EUR, which is of course a respectable amount of money but still far from what you have to pay for a splendid Augustus denarius. If this bronze could be suspected of having been tampered, I would have some understanding but this item is visibly a honest bronze. This becomes very clear when looking at another picture of the identical coin released in the catalog of a previous sale where futile attempts were made to sell it.</p><p><a href="http://www.sixbid.com/browse.html?auction=1530&amp;category=32118&amp;lot=1378850" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.sixbid.com/browse.html?auction=1530&amp;category=32118&amp;lot=1378850" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://www.sixbid.com/images/auction_images/1530/1378850l.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></a></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.sixbid.com/browse.html?auction=1205&amp;category=25312&amp;lot=1110131" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.sixbid.com/browse.html?auction=1205&amp;category=25312&amp;lot=1110131" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://www.sixbid.com/images/auction_images/1205/1110131l.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
