Finn235 Pillar of the Community United States 6130 Posts	Posted 09/16/2018 9:32 pm That's a good start to the set That was a coin type that was really used... most of them are fairly worn, but yours has good luster left, and a really nice style portrait too! Report this Post to the Staff
MartiVltori Pillar of the Community United States 870 Posts	Posted 09/17/2018 10:26 pm That is a really fine example. As far as the slab goes, very few serious ancient collectors prefer slabs and they are not going to pay a higher price for a coin in a slab. It is of course your call but you will not lose money by breaking it out. Report this Post to the Staff
Canefan Valued Member United States 109 Posts	Posted 09/18/2018 12:32 pm MartiVltori, Good to know thanks. The resale aspect is what I was most worried about. I am in the process of cataloging my coins, what I paid, when I bought and in some cases I included what recent auctions of similar coins have gone for. That should help my family understand what I have in case something unfortunate should happen. Report this Post to the Staff
Spence Moderator United States 34430 Posts	Posted 09/18/2018 3:48 pm @canefan, I'm glad to see that you are recording this information for your family and the next generation of collectors. If I might suggest one addition piece of information for you to include, it would be the provenance (e.g. who all owned this coin prior to you).

orfew Pillar of the Community Canada 1269 Posts	Posted 09/18/2018 4:40 pm Recording your coins is an excellent idea. I have a binder with sleeves. In each sleeve is a picture of the coin, the price paid, the date of purchase, the receipts, and any and all other information I have concerning the coin. At the front of the binder is a letter to my wife explaining all of the above and the names of dealers to contact and to send the coins to after I am gone. The last thing I want do is to burden my wife with disposition of my collection. Edited by orfew 09/18/2018 4:40 pm Report this Post to the Staff
