Link? Is this the same set that was posted here a few months ago, the one that couldn't even manage to give Marcus Aurelius curly hair?

I have no idea if Athena uses naval jelly. But what you describe is not what happened in my case. Within a few months the bluish tone had largely...
I would strongly disagree with your 5% figure. I think it's higher. A few random thoughts. Coins aside, I do think it might be accurate to say...
Fascinating. Of course, Zosimus was writing 250 years after the fact, and I don't think we know whether that's what the coins were called...
A beautiful coin and a great write-up! Do we know that the argenteus was actually called the "argenteus," and that the "aureliani" of Aurelian...
Thank you.
Never mind; I found it. There are only six examples of it on ACSearch, and they're all rather crude compared to the Severus Alexander and the...
"Pretty book smart"? I guess that's a good example of damning with faint praise. You have more than met my expectations. But I plead guilty to all...

I am so very glad to hear that Tadpole # 4 has been doing better and is home now. He's adorable! (Unlike many of you, I have no grandchildren, but...
That seems rather dispositive! Which makes me wonder why RPC concluded that it was a blunder. After all, the Commodus coin is also in RPC.
So with Valerian I and II, and Salonina, and Gallienus, now I guess you need to complete the family with one of these if you haven't already done...
@ambr0zie, my first thought on seeing that reverse was also a man in a top hat. Although my mind went to Uncle Sam rather than a magician!...
I have some coins that are pretty mediocre on at least one side, but the other side is decent. (For example, my new Severus Alexander Provincial...
