Thanks! Pics taken using an iPhone 7 If only I could re-create this photo quality on a consistent basis :) The shots I took that day all turned...
I just have the one coin depicting Tyche. Her turreted headdress is just that. It lacks any of the wonderful detail shown in other coins posted...
This thread is a great excuse to show off some of your less common coins :) A couple more I’m not sure I’ve seen here on CT [ATTACH] [ATTACH]...
Its always interesting to consider how differently history could have turned out had a few military struggles gone the other way… Gaul and...
It also goes without saying, but this is one of the most beautifully realized Armorican silver staters I have seen. Unusually good metal, mostly...
@Ryro Ah now this one is stylistically more in line with the Coriosolites. I have something similar, but again not the same. There are many many...
@Al Kowsky have a coin quite similar in appearance to your Veneti stater. Mine was attributed to the Coriosolites (their neighbours) by CGB but...
This Gaulish BI stater type is usually attributed to the Abrincatui. The obverse used to be my avatar pic - there really is no other design like...

So the OP coin sold for $3120 USD including premium. I’m taking my ball and going home.. I don’t want to play anymore.
Cetic/ Gaulish silver coins are quite interesting and generally very small much like the Anglo Saxon sceatta Here’s a neat little Celt I haven’t...
I fully agree with the above sentiment and always break my coins out. While I would never pay a premium for a slabbed coin, I may be more...
I won my New Style Athenian tetradrachm with bid well below the ‘Buy it now’ That was a year or two ago.. things have changed. Checked the buy or...
The coin has excellent centering and tone and the state of preservation is quite good... it’s all about what attracts you to it and what doesn’t...
I’ll agree with some others here. The OP coin has many great attributes but the die shift is… pretty significant and many (most?) discerning...
I was just looking at my collection last night and spent some time with this one. It had been a while.. not quite as well centred as your target...
