The old debate whether
pedigree or not. Of course everyone is entitled to own opinions, and in the world we live in, it is proven
pedigree adds value to a coin in market-sense.
Another story is about what we could call levels of
pedigree - just because I sell my collection, then everyone calls it the "
xxx colln." won't give it
pedigree. You'd need some years, something extra, such as a colln. from an important person, or an important collection.
I do actually own a
Republican denarius from the Dante Alighieri colln. This one was aucitoned last year by
CNG.
