paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 04/08/2019 11:05 pm Hopefully this is correct but I don't know how to distinguish it from Volo III etc. yet and seller did not provide an attribution. His pics are somewhat blurry on the reverse, but I am just trying to confirm this is Volo IV. I have been looking for an affordable example for a few months (I told Bob I'd add one to my collection!) Again, sorry for seller's bad photos, I will take proper photos when I have it.

Kamnaskires Pillar of the Community United States 7066 Posts	Posted 04/08/2019 11:20 pm Good call, Adam: Vologases IV. The blurry pics make pinning down the variety challenging, but it appears it may be a Sellwood 84.128/Sunrise 452. Looks like a very nice example. Congrats. Report this Post to the Staff

Assuming the user fills in each field correctly, it never fails. Report this Post to the Staff
paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 04/08/2019 11:24 pm Thanks Bob! I did tell you I would pick up a Volo IV when I found an affordable nicer example. My winning bid was just under $31. I will take pictures of course. Edit: Tried your site, it nailed the attribution in about 20 seconds. Thank you!

Kamnaskires Pillar of the Community United States 7066 Posts	Posted 04/12/2019 11:25 pm Sweet. Sharply struck and nicely toned. In my opinion, worth perhaps 3X what you paid, Adam. Report this Post to the Staff
