turtlefoot Valued Member United States 182 Posts	Posted 09/16/2016 7:07 pm I know that it is not much to look at, but it I am happy to have it in my collection. It is one of the "bow case and war club" reverse varieties. If it were in better condition, it would have cost more than $3.15 and I doubt I would have been able to pick it up.

turtlefoot Valued Member United States 182 Posts	Posted 09/16/2016 8:58 pm Not really a Greek collector, but I did want a couple for my collection. It would be nice if it were in better condition, but if it were, I doubt I would have purchased it. Report this Post to the Staff
BuckeyeCoinGuy Pillar of the Community United States 711 Posts	Posted 09/16/2016 10:40 pm Nice score. Just try leaving a Slim Jim and a Slurpee to your heirs. Valuable or not, this coin has been treasure now for over 2,000 years. It will be much more appreciated than any Happy Meal you could have bought. Report this Post to the Staff

You must be crazy my friend! :) Report this Post to the Staff
turtlefoot Valued Member United States 182 Posts	Posted 09/17/2016 10:47 am I have a local dealer that is very good to me. He is getting up there in years and his health is failing. He knows that I am not out to flip a profit off of the coins he sells (and sometimes gives me). I am grateful for his friendship. Report this Post to the Staff
