Value of Greek coins

The value of Greek coins is determined by various factors. Rarity plays an important role. A drachm minted in a specific city-state or a tetradrachm depicting a famous ruler like Alexander the Great can be highly sought after by collectors. Quality is also very important. A coin whose details have been preserved in a sharp way is often significantly higher in value than a heavily worn one. The historical context also influences the value. A coin that is directly linked to an important moment in Greek history appeals to the imagination and can therefore have a higher collection value.
