I was looking for this double faced constans II coin which was on my list for some time and yesterday I found a nice NGC slabbed and well provenance one from ex baldwin 1995 with a discounted price on Vcoins and could not resist buying it..

Nice looking coin. Are you going to break it out of the slab?

Thanks Ron! In this specific case I might keep it in slab and the reason is provenance. Because the slab mentioned the ex baldwin 1995 so it would be easier in case I need to liquidate it to add value of it having proven the provenance.

None of my ancients are slabbed.
Far easier to display and store.
as well as
much easier to attribute them on the cardboard 2x2 which contains the coin.

This s a slightly different case, however, as is has a very brief attribution
but
far more important still, it now has a verifiable provenance.

@Sel_69I that "verifiable provenance" is exactly why in this case I keep it in slab

Congratulations!

That type has always stood out when I'm poking through auction catlaogs, for the outrageous beard (believe it or not that style becomes fashionable again in Northern Europe about 900 years later).
