@Mat Per usual, not only did YOU add some excellent coins, you’ve also made me want to add more excellent coins to my collection. When I do my...
@Pavlos: Very nice write up and an excellent coin. I wonder if Queen Teuta had any second thoughts about executing a Roman envoy after that.
I’m torn between the Juba and Caracalla. The Trajan is fantastic as are the others but I can’t wander into sesterii. I just can’t. The Juba has...
Nicely done @dougsmit. The dual portrait from Pautalia is truly special and the kk d of coin I only could hope to stumble across. Congrats
This $14 tool can help make all staples flat. I prefer it to pliers....
Well done @Alwin. All of the coins are great, the siglos is so detailed on the obverse and the Parthians are quite the group.
Fantastic collection for the year or even a lifetime. Good job pouring your resources into pieces you are really happy with. It shows in these...
Very nice. I would certainly like to own a siliqua, much less an East Harptree example. I would also like to add a Bohemond but they are just...
@David Atherton Wow, so fun. I admit when I see something along these lines my first thought is if it is fake or not. But sometimes you just get...
@DonnaML It's funny you say that. If you think about it, it’s 221 years since George Washington died and we still use his portrait. Not using...
@Mat Great coin! I have some bronzes of the Ptolemies, but no tets. That is a great looking coin with a ton of detail. Not at all surprised to...
Great coins and post @Valentinian. Also excellent contributions by @Mat and others. I find these issues fascinating. I appreciate your webpage...
That’s a sharp coin, @Mat. He is one of my missing emperors. I’d be happy with that coin as well. Nicely done
@Mat Thanks for sharing. Your two coins are great and your post prompted everyone to show their abdication issues. I am really attracted to...
I see what you mean @dougsmit. I see a few casting bubbles behind Probus near the ties of his crown and a couple of faint ones near the very...
@gsimonel You are actually on the right track, even if inadvertently. If you look at the exergue, a couple of things stand out. The delta for...
I think the coin looks okay but I would say the portrait looks more like Caracalla in general. I do defer to @Mat on tetradrachmae in general,...
What an impressive one year collection @Roerbakmix! Congrats. I like numbers 2,3,5 and 8 the most. I think it’s funny that so many...
@Mat and @Parthicus Both are excellent samples of the type. I do not have a Vonones and honestly given my limited reading on the Parthians, I’m...
Thanks guys. It’s easy to forget that Saint-Gaudens was a prolific sculptor and has several in Chicago and New York.
