My only thought is that we must not assume that something do not exist just because we failed to find it in whatever list we checked. I noted...
Compare RIC volume VI page 224 # 825 and RIC volume VII page 182 # 210 and the notes on both pages. Mention is made in both places of...
TIF shows a prong mount bezel of the general type that once held this Theodosius II solidus. Note the four damage marks at 12, 3, 6 and 9. I...
The guy who came up with that one died so long ago I doubt you will hear any complaints. https://quoteinvestigator.com/2012/08/31/life-journey/...
Can you show us a facing forward that does not have a drum? There are also other details (staff position or lack). [ATTACH]
Strange is our obsession with these tiny coins where we consider a hemiobol to be 'fat'. True, we could have a contest for the most interesting...
These overstruck coins come in all degrees of success. My favorites are those with the most clear undertype remaining. Having the new obverse...
I. too, lack a column coin of any sort. Once for a few seconds I thought I might have found one dut a second look showed that what I hoped to be...

Lack of edge filing could be considered a reason to doubt some issues. My image here shows coins that IMO show not only proper and official edge...
