Yes I have a collection arranged that way, for Urbs Roma, Constantinopolis, and then the other city commems tucked in around them. For these I...
The assignment of particular officinae to all the coins of a particular personage for one series or another at a mint, was a long established...
Sorry Victor, but if the figure in question looked unambiguously like an epsilon, this whole discussion would not have been necessary. You are...
I believe I see dots preceding and following the letters in this mark. If that is so, then it falls into series 4, not series 2, and for...
Bing, your Severus piece is really nice. I debated about putting up one of those but now I'm glad I held off because your's is nicer....
Sorry to be so late, but here is my example of the coin AA led off the thread with. To my eye they are from the same dies. [ATTACH] [IMG]
I have to photograph it, but I think I have obverse and reverse die matches for the coin you showed at the start of the thread. It is not as nice...

In response to a suggestion by Jamesicus, to flesh out the picture on the FIL AVG inscriptions, here is a quick followup on the FIL AVG(G) issues...
Given the misspelling in the obverse legend on that Gallienus piece (in Mike's first post above), coupled with its unlisted status overall,...
It sounds as though your wife has reached the stage where medication is her only option. May she remain in control of her health for a long time...
Does this only work for cash payments? Is payment by TransferWise approved by any of the European houses on Sixbid and biddr?
Okay, I think I get it. Not years of reign, but the number of the years touched by the reign. The count of the regnal year was not for the number...
The tet for Domitius Domitianus, who stepped up as augustus in 296. Not sure why he went to year two unless he had pretended to the throne the...
Hmmmm. Thanks for the reading lists, Ed. I took a quick look at the one for a general intro to Roman imperial, and must confess that they got a...
