Good point. I don't know what prices were for in the 50's, but bought quite a few originally sold in the 70's so this price would not have...
$25 for that coin? Guessing in the 1970's. By the late 80s/early 90's an 1807 like that they would be asking $80/100 in my memory. Anything before...
Interesting piece. I too would highly doubt an Arabic word being used on Sasanian pieces of this timeframe. My only thoughts would be two fold:...
I view palladium as tied to gasoline engines long term. If you think EVs will continue to make inroads, that would be negative to palladium long...
I got mine at an auction on VAuctions or Agora from a dealer who was out of Georgia. I loved his auctions but he took a job with a major dealer...
Must be a rare subvariety if they are saying only 2 known. I own a gold Bannassac chalice issue.

I find a few things sometimes mainly on world coin pricelists. World coin dealers sometime will have decent prices on some ancients, other times...

The whole idea hurts my brain, sorry. First we had coins, we collect coins. Then we had shenanigans and paid for a third party to grade coins on...
You made this hard @lordmarcovan, (btw thanks for the contest). I came here specifically because of the walker, ( my mother's birth year), but the...
I tell you what, that contest I just might enter. :) My mother was born in 1944.
Yeah, I am sure I cause consternation as the underbidder at times as well. One auction in particular, I was the underbidder on every bid for 2...
So, I was looking at a lot on Triton. I really was torn. Given where it was at, it would have cost me about $10k overall. Not a lot to some, not...
Minus Russia, the US is quite a bit larger than Europe. The distance from FL to NY is over 1,000 miles through some pretty busy highways. Not...
