<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ken Dorney, post: 2593943, member: 76086&quot;]Putting together a set in base metals is far more challenging (though cheaper).&nbsp; I was thinking of doing this recently but scanning through all the auctions I am having a hard time of it as so many coins are either tooled or smoothed these days.&nbsp; I may have to abandon the idea.&nbsp; There is also the regret of loss due to lack of attention.&nbsp; I recently saw the nicest Julius Caesar dupondius ever.&nbsp; I decided it was to be mine.&nbsp; My maximum bid would have been $3,000 (yea, it was that nice).&nbsp; Well, I simply forgot to bid.&nbsp; A few hours after the close I realized I needed to bid but was saddened to see it went for $750.&nbsp; Yikes!&nbsp; Just another reason to enter ones bid early and not late.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
