King John Posted January 12, 2017 Share #5 Posted January 12, 2017 (edited) 15 minuti fa, apollonia dice: Si tratta della stessa moneta. Timeo Danaos et dona ferentes... Oppss...vero: il rovescio fotografato al contrario mi aveva ingannato. @apollonia ha espresso in maniera molto forbita qualche dubbio sul ribasso subito dalla moneta. Ricordo a me stesso, infatti, che la frase latina "Timeo Danaos ed dona ferentes" fu pronunciata da Laocoonte ai Troiani per convincerli a non fare entrare il famoso cavallo di Troia nella città....

VALTERI Posted January 12, 2017 Author Share #7 Posted January 12, 2017 La moneta , nel passaggio in Baldwin's 100 lotto 187 di fine Settembre 2016 , risulta invenduta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matteo91 Posted January 27, 2017 Share #8 Posted January 27, 2017 (edited) Mi era sfuggita questa discussione. Ricapitolando ci sarebbero in circolazione soltanto due esemplari, uno dei quali è stato esitato tre volte negli ultimi 4 anni, per rimanere invenduto nell'ultima asta. La moneta è molto particolare, ma non saprei esprimermi sulla sua autenticità. Qualche esperto ha notato dei dettagli che possano destare sospetti?
