Heh, she looks pretty vexed in that portrait. Noice!
I just reshot this one with different lighting. It looks a lot duller than a previous photo taken with a cell phone & flash that highlights more...
Interesting. Here's another example that sold @Auction in 2013: [IMG] The auction house went so far as to mention this in the description: "The...
One of the giveaways that this is a fake is the sloppiness of the devices. While there may be some slight variances in the length of oars on...
Is there a known finite count on these? Or at least a rough estimate on ones known to be in existence? Along with Donna, I'm curious as to the...

I can't fault that reasoning. I also believe that one of the appeals to HA(for American buyers) is that they're primarily located in the U.S....
Wow, as Æ Byz coins go, yours is a gem! "Rather nice" is an understatement.
Renaissance-Wax, perhaps? The flan has some (environmental)delamination exposing a granular surface.
It's a nice looking coin. I know what I would willing to pay for it(considerably less than it will currently command at HA). This popular type...
