Sharp, well struck coins. Like they just came out of the mint. Congrats.

 

Thanks Bing I was really happy that I won them.

Makes up a little for my disaster in Numisma auction. I had highest advance bids on 3 Portuguese/ Goa AV coins. During the actual event the floor bidders went into a bidding war/ ended up really getting routed.

 

My Numismatik Naumann purchases; nothing too special.

Philip I (needed to fill gaps in my Philip I collection)

​

Troas. Alexandria - Laureate head of Apollo facing (I needed this as it's a base coin for my countermarked coins shown further below)

Really? I think all are very special. Love the countermarks.

 

I totally agree with Bing, nice coins!

 

Wonderful portraits especially the Hostilian -

 

Thanks! Too bad the reverse was struck from woen out dies.
