<p>[QUOTE=&quot;red_spork, post: 2485470, member: 74282&quot;]Ancient and medieval gold is like silver and bronze in that there are very expensive pieces as well as relatively inexpensive ones and many forces driving the market. In this case, the coin is relatively inexpensive because it&#039;s a relatively worn example of a very common type(the Byzantines minted large amounts of gold, much of which has survived), and these small tremisses(note the size and weight) are less desirable to your average collector than their larger counterparts. The scratches don&#039;t help either.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
