What are you collecting these days?

I find it so crazy that these guys are so bad at their job. At least try to get obverse/ reverse right/ and weight/ diameter

I have most of them, I like the reverses.

 

It is even crazier that many of them have a 100% positive feedback score.

 

KM Numismatics has been a major disappointment so far, first they sent me an offer for the ridiculously overpriced Bahmani tanka, then they sent me offers for the coins of Bahadur Shah and Muhammad Shah, even though I had explicitly told them that I am only interested in the Mughal Mohurs of Shah Jahan I and Aurangzeb, and then when they today finally sent me an offer for a Mughal Mohur of Aurangzeb, I was underwhelmed by its condition.

 

I will let you know when I see either one.
Aurangzeb AV Mohurs MS-66 are not $$$ and many in auctions. Shah Jahan I AV M not rare/ many MS-65/66 around. Shah Jahan II and III are rarer.

 

This is what they had offered me for 2500 USD:

 

Thank you, The Mughal Gold Mohurs from when the Mughal Empire was at the height of its power should be magnificent, and not just (barely) okay like the above example.

 

The ones from Abkar and Jahangir are awesome. My fav. the zodiac series/ 500K+ @ Be nice if they found a large hoard!

 

I am currently trying to acquire this Kushan Empire gold coin from the 3rd century:

 

I have this one....

 

Nice, do you have any from the Gupta Empire?

 

No/ not yet/ but have many from post gupta dynasties/ Huna Empire.

 

There is one for sale here: https://www.oxusauctions.com/store/...tya-Circa-380-414-AD-AV-gold-dinar-p617994676

 

I would wait for a better quality one/ struck from fresh dies.

 

Yes, currently the only gold coin I am interested in buying from them is the Kushan Empire Gold Dinar whose picture I posted above, hopefully I will receive a positive reply soon.

 

What do you think about this coin?: https://www.vcoins.com/en/stores/ox...uarter_dinar_unpublished/1697591/Default.aspx

 

Never seen a Quarter Dinara from Kushano-Sassanian Empire. I have three AV Dinara from Vahram/ Ormizd/ Peroz. I would get it/ probably unique

 

I would maybe buy it if the price was 1/4 of what it is now.

 

Its crappy not being RICH

 

Well, luckily for me, none of the gold coins I really want are out of my price range.
