Who said it had to be stored near where it was minted? I personally own coins from Antioch, in mint state, found buried in a pot in England by the...
Completely disagree respectfully sir. 1. The modern country in most cases are invaders, they are not the same people who lived there in...
What a crock of you know what. I own at least one of every coin shown, nothing "rare" at all, and nothing any Greek museum even wants. It will...
Nice. I got a package a few days ago from HA Europe. European auctions I simply plan on over a month to arrive at the earliest, and know sometimes...
I am with you, always preferring the dark, "original" look to brighter coins. Nice one!
I just edited my previous post with a gold example for sale. Like this one, I have always seen these listed as "late phase" and remember reading...
Weren't the Kushan coins thought to be issued at the very, very end of Kanishka's reign, hence the rarity? Its similar why 1921 Peace dollars are...
Cool post. Things such as this is what I refer people to when they ask me, "How is it possible mint state ancients still exist? Burying should...
Must be some free range, organic or simply outrageous market price. Convenience stores in MN have them for $2.99 a dozen. Its not nationwide those...

I always loved Jeff Foxworthy making fun of that saying. "Of course its in the last place you look, why are you still looking after you found it?"...
Yeah, in my experience. I have had a coin with BD in a box, (unbeknownst to me), and a few others picked it up within a few months. They were all...
Any bronze can get BD. Put it next to an infected coin and it will get it. However, most spots of red and green, (darker green), are simply shades...
It CAN, but horribly rare, but chose to ignore since other red flags exist. This is an easy one. Next level are people like @Barry Murphy where...
Now that is entirely too broad of a brush. I have received dozens of packages of authentic Chinese coins from China. To say ALL coins from ALL...
Ignoring the flan, (occasionally a very round flan and good centering can happen), what my eye noticed is the lettering is weird looking, portrait...
Nice. For some weird reason I have always loved these nickels disproportionately to other series. Even though I mainly only buy ancients and some...
Very much so. I believe shipping is free with NN if you win 200 Euro or something, so maybe look there as a suggestion, (I have no relationship...
Wish you the best @Rushmore. I know its a terrifying feeling, after hearing stories of shipments getting impounded sometimes. My last shipment...
I haven't been to NYINC, but know NY is pricey. FUN has a good number of ancient and World dealers. However, I am opportunistic, and have bought...
