Started? He's been doing it for many years. What he started only recently was admitting it.
My guess as well. Multiple identical copies. He uses a 3D printer in his basement!
Certainly the burden of proof has not shifted in rape cases. Not in the USA or any other common-law country I know of. I have no idea about France...
I unfortunately don't own this coin, but I was just reading about it earlier today at Liv Mariah Yarrow's blog, and thought it would fit perfectly...
What an interesting coin. Would you mind identifying it? Thanks!
As I suspected, there is a page of clippings for Crawford 229 in the CRRO Schaefer Die Project database; it's at...
The B. 23 must be Babelon 23, which = Crawford 28/3. The envelope is almost certainly from before Crawford's publication in 1974, or it would cite...
The Schaefer die studies at CRRO don't appear to include Crawford 229 in their index, either for the binders or the "processed clippings."...
Thanks. Plus the eagle's/griffin's head and beak (complete with tufts!) are extraordinarily clear at the top of Roma's Phrygian helmet in my new...
What can I say? I've always loved elephants ever since I was a small child and first saw them at the Central Park and Bronx Zoos. Even before I...

I might as well start by sharing my only two other ancient coins depicting a centaur, both part of Gallenius's Zoo Series: Gallienus, Billon...
New Roman Republican coins have been rather scarce for me this year. The more common types I already own, the more difficult it seems to be to...

For some additions/revisions to the footnotes to the above discussion of the "Conquest of Upper Egypt Medal," after I did some more research, see...
Regarding my Napoleonic "Conquest of Upper Egypt Medal" posted above at...
Anything to make a few nummi, I guess.
My one coin from Anchialus, from Gordian III's reign, does use the "gamma nasal": Gordian III with wife Tranquillina, AE 26 mm., 241-244 AD,...
That must be the explanation; I can't think of any other. [I believe that next is still Sicily.]
Roman Republic. C. Poblicius Q.f. AR Serrate Denarius, 80 BCE. Obv. Head of Roma right, wearing helmet decorated with grain ears; ROMA behind, V...
