In my book, put simply, 'Cleaning' to reveal what is left of the coin IS acceptable, (to me) but 'Tooling' to enhance what is found (by giving...
I would be happy to pay $55-$65. The obverse shows a lot of wear, and the legend is 'off-flan'. The reverse is 'soft' and is not a 'central...
Having read all of the members' opinions presented here, for my part, and my purposes, I am prepared to say that "Smoothing" and "Tooling" are...
Oooops. Well there you go. I have never seen that! (New glasses required.) Thank-you, Carthago. So simple.
Somebody pleeeease tell me if I am wrong, but isn't there 20 posts to a 'page' so that the 40th 'post', (including the "O.P."), would be the last...
Not 'Tooled'......................................'Tooled' [ATTACH]
Right-on Steve!

I am wondering if (rather than Constantine II RIC VII Cyzicus 12 H), we might not have Constantine I RIC VII Cyzicus 8. [ATTACH]
Thanks Mikey. Just looked up abbasid, Chris. I will spend some time there tomorrow. In the meantime I do have a couple more of the 'Moorish' coins...

The 'Rarity' of a coin is so 'meaningless' I don't file mine under that 'title' so to show them would require a lot of research, however here are...
Sorry, 7Calbrey, but I have to agree with Doug. Not Constantine II RIC VII. Cyzicus 12 H, I am afraid. The bust on Constantine II RIC VII. Cyzicus...
Thanks, Chris, Steve.
Nothing in my price range, I am afraid.
Unfortunately, R.4 has no effect on value of Roman coins. I have some R.5. coins that are worth between $3 and $7.
This coin is bronze and is 17 mm., 1.57 gm. One person suggests that it could be from the 'Moorish' occupation of Spain, c. 1200 A.D., but I am...
With your help. I believe that what I have is a "Half Maravedis" of Philipe II, (1556-1598A.D.) Obv. Castle divides mintmark and assayer mark....
Thank-you, everyone, (esp. medoraman). The coin was a 'gift' with a number of other coins I purchased from a 'detector' who travelled in Spain and...
Maybe someone else, then.
