Nothus Valued Member United States 209 Posts	Posted 07/29/2012 2:26 pm I just wish I wasn't working today so I could try to schedule an exclusive private viewing. At least this is my 50th post so I can show everyone how many of my coins resemble the above pieces. I wonder if he would at least include the tablecloth in the deal...would be great for St. Paddy's day. Report this Post to the Staff

DVCollector Bedrock of the Community United States 10045 Posts	Posted 07/29/2012 10:50 pm Honestly...this was my impression when I entered the hobby--all ancient coins were rare/valuable. Report this Post to the Staff
Ben Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 4208 Posts	Posted 07/30/2012 05:25 am DVC, I agree. I bought my first ancients because I was staggered by how cheap they were. I thought it would be at least £50 for a slug, an actual coin being worth hundreds. But hey, eventually they'll stop coming out of the ground and the price will start going up.
