I like the graphic, Ryro :woot::D:joyful: but I think the bust is possibly of younger Marius.
Very nice! 10-13 are teh ones I'd most like to see individua pics of. The Justinian Years 12-14 40 nummia are amongst teh most impressive...
Lucius Cornelius Sulla has interested me since my college days, and while AE of Nero are my favorite coins, L.C. Sulla is my favorite Roman;...
It's a lovely description and I'm now slightly poorer, as I went out and also bought a halfway decent one, although it's not nearly as nice as...
I'm not sure if there's a set time when they air, Saturday afternoon seems to be a time, but I enjoy Vietnam-era A Date With Chris shows the most...
Very nice! Do you have any cleaning tips for noobs? Like for cleaning late Roman AE3s? Dunking them in olive oil and waiting a long time didn't...
Very cool; I'm hopeless at cleaning coins. Especially cool that you found it!
Well, apparently mine is : DOMITIAN AE drachm. ALEXANDRIA, Egypt. Struck regnal year 15, 95-96 AD. AVT KAI S QEO VVIOS DOMIT SEB GERM, laureate...
Al Kowsky, you might enjoy the internet radio station, My Best Sounds, which plays 1960s-80s AFRTS shows. Interesting topic, and Doug brings up a...

While doing a search on acsearch.info, approximately 30 S 1260 (Justinian II, Constantinople) and 20 Leo III (1514) coins came up, covering about...
Or, are folles of Justinian II, Constantine IV and Leo III (the pre XXX/NNN Leos) being diverted to auction houses? I'd guesstimate that SCL 40...
Still, a heckuva good deal for 22.50. I bought a pretty nice one from Jon Subak years ago, IIRC, and picked some halfway decent ones from 1990s...
A most excellent deal. I don't have Sear open for the exact number, but that is the smaller module issue, correct? 882 was the one on the big...
That's a pretty nice one. I'd like to get a nice one of S882, but opportunity cost comes up; for the same price, I can get a Seleucia or a rarer...
During the reigns of Constantine IV through Leo III, AE issues of Syracuse seem to far outstrip that of Constantinople. One might see a 40 Nummia...
is the 200 pound sterling vcoins Basiliscus AE4 a real one? Not implying either way. It's just one of those coins where one has to use...
