A fine Galba Alexandria tetradrachm is a red core? And some common Elagabalus denarii, in nice condition? LOL: ROMAN EMPIRE NERVA, AD 96-98 AR...
You didn't do bad for a first coin. It's better than the average A2. I found that it's kind of fun to collect the 51+ varieties (the different...
It's an anonymous follis. I couldn't tell you whether it's a class A2 or A3 without diameter, weight. Most are the smaller types. It has pretty...
To be honest, I don't know. Maybe something like this?...
Interesting. That is quite tiny. Here's an uncleaned one. Trajan - AE Dichalkon - Alexandria - 15mm, 1.23g I don't usually collect coins so...
I don't have the world's greatest budget, and less in the old days, so my coins generally aren't world-beaters. However, I'm down to only missing...
I can't find a master list, but you'll probably end up with something like a Fine Hadrian denarius, an XF Antoninianus, or XF Khrusru II, all of...
Here's what one of the most influential ancient coin youtube channels said about the original ancients release: [MEDIA] I've been collecting...

No one on three forums thought it was a Scantilla. Mauseus on Forum had a good, not-messed-with budget example (better than mine) of a Scantilla....
It's been 15 years since I purchased one. My only other example is a slick, of unknown legionary attribution. [ATTACH] MARCUS ANTONIUS (Marc...
It's rare enough to come across a full flan example, yet alone with toning of this type. It's also from a western mint, which gives it plus...
It's a choice example of a very iconic type. I'm a bit envious! Congrats!
It is indeed a wonderful siliqua; full flan, fantastic toning, and great condition. I have a few attractively toned siliquae, but this one takes...
I've wrote up a rough draft of the email, but it's been a busy week, I didn't feel like dealing with anything stressful, and I haven't gotten...
Pretty cool! I only have a small shipwreck cob.
Oops, by 20% I meant 20 karats. That's a cool tetarteron.
It's been 30 years since I last picked up an Isaac II, the previous one being an inexpensive one from Allen Berman's Cheap Ancients lists (I miss...
I've been pretty good about avoiding coins with BD, ever since the Great BD Outbreak of 2000. None of my coins from him have gone sour. I...
I've procrastinated writing the email. Might as well get it over with. I looked at the coin closely this morning, and I can't make heads nor...
