    I bought these on a whim from a Heritage auction about 5 or 6 years ago.

    I like them! I think the first might be undergraded by a couple points.

    Nice coins Marty, and I agree with jester, that first one looks better than a 50.

    I don't claim to know much about ancients, but these are really nice! I agree the first one seems better than AU50. Nice coins image - Preussen

    Maybe I should send it to Cameron and tell him to get it right this time!! I bet he would grade it a XF40 only because it's me!
