Here's a lighter topic for tonight, posted here to reach a wider audience. It wouldn't be any news to ancient coin collectors. This video was posted on the excellent youtube channel, Classical Numismatics. The sweet spot of the topic starts around 6 minutes into the video.
As some NF members pointed out and I believe he himself notes, grading ancients is a bit irrelevant, but it's a fun video. I would have graded the beautiful Hadrian denarius (the one in the teaser pic) at VF+. The flan cracks wouldn't bother me greatly and I would be proud to have this piece.
