I'll start this by saying I really like the below coin. I'm going to now bash it a bit but it's more about being critical of the coin than me not...
I like your selection very much. Also, I agree this period produced high quality coins particularly in silver.
Very nice! A coin like this reminds why I like the time period. [IMG] Maximianus (Tetrarchy) 287–305 A.D. follis IMP MAXIMANVS P F AVG / GENIO...
The book is quite impressive and the calendar is a nice touch. Some decent marketing bucks. Your coin is very nice.
That auction is run very well. I put numbers on a few of them and there were a few low bid items on there that I ended up liking. I definitely...
I've been enjoying looking at everyone's coin lists acquired over the last few years (bump). This coin is worn quite a bit - the image makes it...
That looks really good. I thought that was Trajan “at first glance”, amazing how similar their designs are. Well done!
The price is absurd, but I do not dislike the cleaned coloring. There’s quite a bit of smoothing on these other coins that make the cleaning look...
That was like a trip to a museum, thank you
Excellent selection and you seem to have a good eye. I’d be comfortable with SMHB and attributing the Gratian as from Heraclea without the ? mark...
Thank you, I’ve focused my collection there and in particular on Trajan. I’ve been tempted to post my Adoptive Emperor collection on the recent...
I’ve seen this as AE centenionalis and maiorina, AE2 and even heavy in front of those terms but Wildwinds has it as AE3. You’re right it isn’t...
This one has been very challenging to photograph. The lighting requirement just is very unique compared to my other coins. I've tried overexposing...
Greetings, Here are my top ten of 2020 (in chronological order): Augustus, as struck 7 B.C. My coin collecting bug had always been in silver...
That is great you can identify the Magistrate. I really like this coin and I'm a Trajan fan.
Phenomenal thread, deserving of a sticky. I will be participating, but I'm staying positive that the top 10 changes in a month (Santa I've been...
Throughout history there have been a series of prominent "Scarfaces" ("Say 'ello to my little friend"). Some historical, and some fictional. As...
I prefer the cleaned coin. The patina was nice, but the encrustation detracted quite a bit and the rarity is in that mintmark. Nice work!
Victor Clark as in the Vcoins shop? You have a nice selection of coins. I realized I had a few coins in the cart for a while (that I ended up not...
That Diocletian is one of the first ancient coins I acquired, which means I was solely focused on how cool the coin would look in my hand. I've...
