Thank you! I view the HISTORIA NVMMORVM and the BMC books as antiquities. Like my unusable Hill first issue. The rest of the books sound very...
Thank you:) If it fits Parthicus’ description, it sounds very useful, yes.
I read some reviews. Looks like a good lot of books. Glad to read your recommendation, @Valentinian
Thanks! I have Sayles and Plant alredy. Third book sounds useful.
Today I was the highest bidder on this lot: [ATTACH] This looks very promising. I have only Sayles and Plant from before. Really looking forward...
[ATTACH] With a beard, like yours. I don't have pics of all of his big brother, but here are some: [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
[ATTACH] Yes, what a nice way to spend a stormy Sunday. I’ll get on the Severans in a minute.
The OP coin is great. I only have one Postumus. Want more when I read this thread... [ATTACH]

There are some more coins I'd like to add to this thread: [ATTACH] I really like this Gordian III. So many of his coins are results of poorer...
