A client of mine is a coin collector, and today he brought photos of his collection. (It’s pricey; he doesn’t want it to leave the house.) Among his coins was an Ephesian tetradrachma—the very same coin Tommy flips in the game. A lot more worn down, but there’s a honeybee on one side, a stag on the other. Solid silver, stamped (not minted; they didn’t do that) around 390-380 BC. Currently valued at $1,900.

Let’s be fair; Tommy might have a zinc knock-off. But if it’s authentic, he’s walking around with a $1,900 coin in his pocket. Pretty sure it’d help buy some windows for the mansion… if he gave a shit.
