I strongly prefer rare and historically significant coins over perfect but common ones. And I really disagree with collectors who are ready to pay...
It is free now and enjoying good company of old friends. Thanks everyone for discussion! [ATTACH]
I would not consider it a budget piece. For Joppa mint it is in great shape, usually they are much worse!
Nope. Same coin, not slabbed, arguably worse condition than mine, brought more than twice as much yesterday on CNG: [ATTACH] Interestingly, no...
First, here is the reverse of the coin: [ATTACH] Second, thank you all for the discussion! After reading the replies I tend to take it out, for...
I like this coin very much, it is very rare with less than 10 known, and it is one of the best, if not the best of the type. So, should I break...
I use primarily RIC X, sometimes RIC IX as well. The other volumes I didn't open for years, online data is sufficient for my needs.
I went there Friday morning, and after a swift four hours drive from Boston I arrived just past 11 am. I had pretty much whole day to explore and...
Pretty much exclusively Roman Provincial of Judaea, Decapolis and Arabia. With nearly 3000 types to cover, and many of them very rare or unique, I...
I am planning to be there probably around 11, if I survive the drive from Boston.

I will know when I see it :happy:, I guess it will be something unpublished :woot:.
Just won it 3 days ago, and here it is already in my hands in Boston! Kudos to Savoca! [ATTACH] [ATTACH] Rabbath Moba (misattributed as...
What a coincidence! I took it out of my mailbox literally half an hour ago! Mine I think is Spijkerman 23. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Love Domna, great condition for the type
Definitely number one, very unusual deyty scene, and amazing condition particularly for Tyre. Other coins are also great but different league I think.
I was also considering bidding on this lot, but for a completely different reason. I was interested in this early Ascalon coin: [ATTACH] So, slim...
Indeed, that's the one! Herennia Etruscilla from Bostra, quite rare and this coin with perfect centering and nearly full legend readable is likely...
I got this provincial issue from Gadara couple of weeks ago. Love the style! Dated to last year of his rule.
