Yes, your photo is much better than mine. I've experimented with and without flash, and about every variable I could think of. The dslr shots...
Since it's not a macro lens, I had to hold the lens fairly far away. And when I would get close, the camera would cast a shadow on the item. At...
Thanks for the encouragement. Your pics are great! :joyful:
I tried both the Note 20 and the SLR today. I had tried the dSLR setting which had been successful on record labels, multiframe noise reduction,...
Anyone have a nicer (than mine) version of this type from the Seleucia mint?
I had to look up what a Manhattan sandwich is. I've had those before; Frisch's sold them as open face roast beef sandwiches (although it seems to...
Other than one lost coin, I've been lucky enough for that not to happen. I've had it happen in other hobbies: One hall of fame class moron ebay...

I just snacked on a Constantine IV, Rome. While it is in fairly nice shape, it was kind of a crummy coin even when minted, rather unfulfilling....
The issues also have distinctive types of busts. I've always been interested in this issue. Perhaps they were celebrations of the Maxentian...
I've seen no bottom banner. I run noscript with Firefox.
Thanks; the Treb. Gallus is small, even for that period. It's a fairly nice-looking coin; less grainy in person than it looks on the picture....
I've always wanted a Heraclius Seleucia. There was a more detailed one recently on vcoins, but by the time I enquired whether the stuff in the...
Oops, finally noticed my typo: Hadrian = Heraclius. Whether the large module coins were already there in Sicily or if they were old stock from...
Wow, very interesting, esp. the Sassanian! Sadly, I have no big SCL issue; only some small ones. I'm working on finding a good one. I bought a...
