Hello Jörg, actually quite simple. If you bought the piece for your shop it was almost a bargain. And if you bought the piece for your own collection then given your experience you should know what you are doing by now. Here is my last Aureus: RIC II 1² Vespasian 1348 Obv.: IMP CAESAR VESPASIANVS AVG Rev.: CONCORDIA AVG Vespasian 69-79, Aureus 69-70, uncertain western mint, Spain, 19mm 7,38g, -vz, (R2), INV:R339 Ex. Numiscorner, A2, Lot 1082, 15.06.24 Ex. NAC, A125, Lot 502, 24.06.21 Ex. Bertolami, A29, Lot 444, 29.03.17 Three (four) examples of the type RIC II 1² Vespasian 1348 with the CONCORDIA AVG reverse are known.

Hello, the second piece is: Sachsen-Lauenburg, Magnus I. (1507-1543) Please indicate the weight and diameter of the coin. Can you recognize the year on the “eagle side”? https://www.numisbids.com/n.php?p=lot&sid=3026&lot=5685 With friendly greetings from Germany

Hello, the focal length primarily determines the image section. Here is a good explanation: https://www.canon.ge/pro/infobank/understanding-focal-length/ I also use the MFT system, among other things. The 60 macro is recommended. The lens is available used “relatively” cheaply.

Hello, are you sure the weight is correct? Otherwise it would actually fit: RIC IV Severus Alexander 523 http://numismatics.org/ocre/id/ric.4.sa.523 With friendly greetings from Germany

Hello Julius Germanicus, The piece should be: RIC II 1² Domitian 104 (R / rare). http://numismatics.org/ocre/id/ric.2_1(2).dom.104 Kind regards.

The piece comes from the diocese of Worms. The Coiner was Dietrich von Bettendorf 1552-1580 as Prince Bishop of Worms. https://www.coinarchives.com/w/lotviewer.php?LotID=6448098&AucID=7453&Lot=757&Val=f213e36ac5d16a86ebff0904755ea99a https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prince-Bishopric_of_Worms https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dietrich_von_Bettendorf https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bettendorff_(Adelsgeschlecht) With friendly greetings from Germany

Hello, this coin was minted in the Augsburg Imperial Mint. At that time, this mint was leased to Eberhard IV von Eppstein-Königstein. Eberhard IV was not a relative of the House of Habsburg but came from the House of Eppstein. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/County_of_Königstein https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lords_of_Eppstein With friendly greetings from Germany

The reference literature for the Flavian coinage is: Roman Imperial Coinage Volume II - Part I https://www.amazon.com/dp/1902040848/ref=olp-opf-redir?aod=1&ie=UTF8&condition=new&qid=1691873214&sr=8-1 With freendly greetings from Germany

In my opinion: RIC II 1² Domitian 284 (R) https://gallica.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/btv1b10447926b http://numismatics.org/ocre/id/ric.2_1(2).dom.284

The specific gravity is within the normal range how you write. I can't see any signs of plating on the photos either. I don't see why it shouldn't be a hybrid (mule) from the official roman mint. What else should it be, congratulations. 🙂

The Fourrée from the Paris Collection can be seen online here: BNC III Titus 115, 2.61g https://gallica.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/btv1b10447386j?rk=7832656;4 Completely different style ...

Congratulations David ! Will this coin get its own number in RIC II 1² Addenda ? With friendly greetings from Germany

O.K. Two collectors, two opinions, why not. The entire sale contains high-grade rarities for witch special collectors are happy to pay the asking prices. With the vast majority of pieces, it is not about condition but about rarity. With friendly greetings from Germany
