Won this lot. Not a cheap one, no profit in it, I just wanted the Temple and the follis (and the curious lion coin). Anyone see anything good? Some nice coins, some crud, a few non romans. 7ptyk!~~60_12.jpg) I like these kind of crummy lots with the hidden nice coins. But pricey (this one was £16!) |

You must have a fair few these days. And besides, If I find any more (or I get any in lots) then you'll be the first sucker person ill talk to.
Ill get one eventually for my collection. Chewed up to fit in...

You must have a fair few these days 14 in total and 9 so far this year - that seems about the average on ebay, 1 per month. I know of a Galerius (£125), a Maximian (£100) and a Constantius (£85) for sale but those prices are IMHO at least twice what the coins are actually worth. Maybe if I'm feeling flush at Christmas I'll ask Santa for them  Quote:

Stop mentioning Xmas.
My wife informs me the staff in Asda today were wearing Xmas themed T shirts.

Not a bad price, considering that in all honesty, in "Coin Craft", the "Junk Tray" has coins AE4s of that grade for £2 each.

The easter stuff appears at the local corner shop before Christmas day...
Coincraft's £2 tray is worse than that. Mostly slicks, I kid you not. I bought 5 coins from them though - A republican with janus and centaurs, a couple of posthumous Constantines, an unknown (still not worked it out) and a possible Leo I.
