Gil-galad Pillar of the Community United States 2044 Posts	Posted 04/20/2012 08:19 am I'd say in the range of $8-$15. Valentinian I is a fairly common emperor. The reverse type is uncommon, but not too rare. Report this Post to the Staff

echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 04/20/2012 2:12 pm Nice detail, I'd value it at $5-$7. Report this Post to the Staff
juzzyb Valued Member Australia 215 Posts	Posted 04/20/2012 8:48 pm I quite like it but think it might be a bit much at $20 Report this Post to the Staff
dougsmit Pillar of the Community United States 1549 Posts	Posted 04/20/2012 8:59 pm And now you see the problem with ancient coin 'values'. Some of us see a rough surface with part legends and say $5 while others say it could be worse and $20. Mass marketers will sell such a coin for $29.95 to people who believe anything old is valuable. Collectors with more such coins than they want already will pass at any price. $5-7 Report this Post to the Staff
