I saw this pop up on vcoins 2 days ago. I thought about it for 2 days and finally bought it. It is by far the most expensive coin I have ever bought. I will eagerly be awaiting its arrival.

Here it is...a KOSON stater.

I know there I some argument about this coin concerning Brutus and the meaning of KOSON. Whatever the truth I think it is a stunning coin. What I loved about this example is that although it was graded by NGC I do not have to break it out of its slab, it was already done for me.

Last time I heard about the Koson coins a few years ago, it was said that all the known examples were either in museums or illegally looted.

I'm assuming that it isn't the case any more?
