NOW ON SALE @ $4500 (compare with recent sales) More Information About Us: Iconic Coins and Collectibles is the result of thirty years of collecting. We collected coins that we felt represented a cross section of a typical classical collection, including common Greek and Roman ancients, English and some Continental European. We purposely stayed away from American coins because of their commonness and high prices-- and because our interest, like that of many coin collectors, is partial to the history of ancient and European coinage.We bought coins between the mid-range and high end in value, and all our coins are very fine, extra fine or better-- most are extra fine. All of our coins have been duly authenticated and graded by professionals at NGC or PCGS. So, there can be no question of their authenticity or grading. Additional Information: Many of our pieces have been cited for great eye appeal and fine styling. What you see in our professionally taken photos are exactly what you will receive with purchase. We suggest you carefully deliberate before buying one of our coins, In the unlikely event that a buyer thinks a coin he?s bought has been misrepresented in some manner, we will take the coin back at the buyer?s cost of handling and certified postage.
