VisigothKing Pillar of the Community United States 4778 Posts	Posted 11/21/2011 7:14 pm $12.50 shipped for it. Seems a tad high for me, but I'm tempted since I'm looking for an Honorius. What do you guys think? Thanks. Report this Post to the Staff

dougsmit Pillar of the Community United States 1549 Posts	Posted 11/21/2011 7:25 pm Full legend, full mintmark often means $10+. Honorius/Arcadius coins off center making it hard to tell which it is are common so $12.50 is not out of line here (but would be too much for a similar looking coin of many rulers who struck more on center coins). I have a similar Arcadius with nicer surfaces that cost me $27 in 1994 and I'm cheap. Report this Post to the Staff

Bing Pillar of the Community United States 4253 Posts	Posted 11/21/2011 10:05 pm Since you need this coin for your collection, I say go for it. $12.50 is not too high. My two Honorius coins were under $10, but good ones don't come along too often. Report this Post to the Staff
VisigothKing Pillar of the Community United States 4778 Posts	Posted 11/21/2011 10:30 pm All right, I'll jump on it. Thanks guys! Also, the seller doesn't have the attribution, but am I correct in saying it's RIC 72 Antioch (possibly minted 421-423 AD)? Edited by VisigothKing 11/21/2011 10:32 pm Report this Post to the Staff
