I'd settle for a short drive to a small show. I'm sure shows will be disappointing if they ever return because I have placed them on a pedestal...
I'd say Rome. I don't have an Eastern Spes to show but this later Moneta gives the idea. [ATTACH] Returning to the game: Next: Non roman ruler...
I believe you are demonstrating that some coins respond to axial lighting while others look better with directional light. CNG does not have time...
I paid $55 US for the coin in 1995 so it went for less than half that when you consider the exchange rate. Guy tended to be high but this coin...
I have too many 'favorite' errors. This overstrike mimics a Constantius Gallus with laurel wreath but it is actually the remnant of the...
I don't know what brand you have and all I know is Canon but I suspect there is some overlap. I have a 100mm f/2.8 Canon macro of the last design...
We should pay attention to see which mint operations made the most mistakes. Certainly Claudius II has a lot of die clashes [ATTACH] but I...
This must be a common type for more than one date. My COS XII came to me in 1988. At that time I had no interest in Domitian, little interest in...

I can not accept the arguments about what coin was used. The story was written a generation after all the participants were dead using passed...
Why did the old fool sell that nice Probus? Well, before AMCC2 I was wanting to support our friend Sev and consign some coins to his sale but...
Perhaps this is just my attitude but I see a considerable difference between ugly coins acquired sight unseen as a lot with other coins that turn...
Westaire may have put under by Covid since their main trade was selling trinkets to gift shops that are now closed. I saw some in a local museum...
It is great to see someone with a group of coins each of which is easily identifiable and worth owning for years to come. If you get stumped,...
I read MONETA AVGVSTI but that comes as a sestertius but not dupondius?
Double struck ancient coins are hardly rare enough to be called 'errors' as much as they are evidence of poor workmanship. 'Error grade' ancients...
Bing's image shows the point all are missing. Quinarii were made with dies smaller than those used for denarii. Bing's wildwinds provided image...
Below is a photo of the rig that made the OP video. The half ball idea TIF mentioned is sooo last year and is no longer used. I tend to try 100...
I'm taking a break from attempting to join the video generation. After seeing some big dealers posted videos of coins that made it easier to see...
