See Any Keepers in This Greek lot? I'm looking to bid on it. Maybe pay pup to 70 bucks including shipping or about 2 dollars per coin.

Its definitely a good lot. every coin already shows detail and greeks clean up well. Theres a few carthage looking ones in there. I think its a nice lot but I dont see any REALLY nice ones.

I think you should try for it.

All of them!
You are going to have a real battle identifying them all. If it were me it could take years, but I would eventually get most of them! That is the fun of the challenge.

I would have to confess that from the picture, perhaps some of them may remain unidentified if they were in my hands.

I would spend some considerable research on the 'Net regarding the professional cleaning of ancient coins. Even then, after suitable methods have been found, lotsa time may be needeed.

Thanks Sel, ha yeah a real battle indeed! Maybe i'll get some help on this forum :-) I'm on page 110 of Sayles Vol 1 book and just ordred all RIC books on DVD so I'm learning about iding coins albeit slowly. Hopefully I can attribute some on my own one blue moon ;-)

They look like all keepers and a nice lot to boot. Once they are cleaned up you will have some nice Greeks.
