    Very original sunface, Hyperion. Hope the price was right.

    it was one of those "purge-cause I have way too much" right now and it was outside "core". and it did result in a profit.

    There were 2 or 3 coins in the purge I should have never sold, happily for me it wasn't because they were unique condition but they had that "right look" .. that coin was even nicer in hand but i Think I even purged the images I took of it so I wouldn't be tortured. unfortunately my work machine had a copy I ran across from the original auction image

    It works both ways. I've found over the years, that one of my biggest consolations after selling a pretty coin, is to still own ,nice professional images of it.

    Besides, most of my better coins are in a safe deposit box in a bank, so these coins too I mostly enjoy them through their pictures. Wether I own them or not, doesn't make that much of a difference, and it kind of helps if one wants to liberate himself from the torture of material posessions and the endless hunt for them. image

    A free life cannot acquire many possessions, because this is not easy to do without servility to mobs or monarchs.

    I regretted selling this one so much that I had to buy it back at a significant profit to the seller.
