[QUOTE="Paul M., post: 2430059, member: 73165"]I've been eyeing a few of these for a while and am seriously considering purchasing one. I'm guessing I'll end up spending somewhere in the neighborhood of $800-1200, because that's about where the coins start to look attractive to me. What I'm looking for are: [LIST] [*]No cuts. [*]Most of the reverse design on flan (owl, most of the olive sprig, A TH and at least most of E) but don't care about the outlines of the incuse square itself. [*]Entire face of Athena on flan, preferably with a little room in front of her nose. I'm willing to sacrifice the crest, neck line, and maybe a little helmet if necessary here. [*]Wear: VF-ish. I want to be able to see the details. :) [*]Decent to fine style. [/LIST] Does this sound like a fairly realistic expectation for the price range?[/QUOTE]
