I've wanted an Athenian tetradrachm since I first saw one in a coin collection book I found in my elementary school library. It was so long ago they were practically still in circulation!

I have not seen or taken that poll but I have been one since I resumed collecting in 1998. I used to collect US coins when I started but when I picked it up again, I took a good look at they prices and price structure and knew I would never be able to put together any collection that I considered more than average. I still consider this true today even though my collection is worth more than I anticipated.

 

Of the choices above, i think it is a "no brainer". I do not see any of those coins those coins as scarce, but the Greek coin is vastly superior to the others.
