Please see my other listings, as I'm selling a variety of ancient Greek bronzes and some Roman silver coins with a $1 start and no reserve price. I combine shipping. This is the last auction I'll be running. I'm primarily a collector who is selling off some coins to purchase more coins ;)  

All coins have been purchased from either Leu or CNG as mostly group lots. If you desire an exact provenance, please ask. Genuine grantee, and I offer a 14 day refund period without question. 

All coins are shipped in PVC free SaFips with tracking.
