<p>[QUOTE="Gary R. Wilson, post: 4534841, member: 89935"]I just bought a duplicate coin from the recent Roma auction. I hadn't planned on bidding on this coin but when I saw the current bid I just couldn't resist. What's interesting is the fact that I just purchased the same type coin from John Anthony. The other coins I bid on went to higher bidders except for one besides the one I have talked about. So, when do you think getting a duplicate coin is warranted? Please post your examples.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1122854[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>Galba (Augustus)</p><p>Coin: Silver Quinarius</p><p>SER GALBA IMP CAESAR AVG P M T P - Laureate head right</p><p>VICTORIA GALBAE AVG - Victory, draped, standing right on globe, holding wreath and palm.</p><p>Mint: Lugdunum (68-69 AD)</p><p>Wt./Size/Axis: 1.74g / 15mm / 8h</p><p>Rarity: Rare</p><p>References: </p><p>RIC 132</p><p>BMCRE 244</p><p>King 1</p><p>RSC 317</p><p>Provenances: </p><p>Roma Numismatics</p><p>Acquisition/Sale: Roma Numismatics Internet E-Sale 71 #875 $0.00 05/20</p><p>Notes: May 28, 20 - The Gary R.
