    That’s crazy low, I’m a poor bastard and I would have paid more than that lol

    That seems like it would practically just be the value of the silver alome

      Coin collectors are very funny folks. Rarity is almost everything - you can get ten years’ of 10th century Andalusan coins that are dirt cheap, and then one year of minting is insanely expensive just because only a few survived for one reason or another.

      I definitely need to buy some of these square Mauryan coins if my finances ever stabilize though, they’re insanely cool.
