DavidUK Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2624 Posts	Posted 08/31/2015 07:29 am Having put in a good deal of overtime this weekend I wanted to invest a little into a few coins. I have a nice long wish list on V-coins, and I thought I would try and remove a few of them... Cant really go wrong with silver denarius and I thought this one had an attractive portrait. This is a type that I have wanted for a while and I thought at £42.50 it was cheap enough. Again a type I have been looking to add, from the same seller as the Euboia coin and again not too dear. Thessaly Larrissa coins seem to be dear, and one would generally prefer silver coins to bronze ones but I need some more Greek bronzes in my collections. This coin was super cheap and crosses off a type that can be quite pricey. It probably isn't the best but it is centred and not unattractive to me. Report this Post to the Staff
