Don't miss the large lots at the end of the sale. There reside the groups of coins more likely to sell in lower price ranges. Of course some...
That one would be hard to 'avoid' at that price.
I would have to examine this one before believing it is fourree. I have been looking for fourrees of Eastern denarii for a long time and have...
Excellent! Suggestion: Construct a soft, even light box/panel over the top that rests entirely on the raised sides and back so you do not have...
I like the oval flan. I doubt the coin seemed as odd in its day as it does today to people used to the use of collars that insure round coins....
I see the description was changed. That does leave the question of whether you want to buy coins from a dealer who can't tell Treb from Gordian....
I need to see the Hercules worth $200 that came out of an uncleaned lot. This one was $183 postpaid from a seller on this list, Is yours better?...
