I would love to see both. Fascinating stuff
So I was unaware of this until fairly recently. I know it is not strictly ancient but I’ll take a chance and figure someone will find it...
There are some great coins and replies to this thread. I’m happy to share something I’ve enjoyed with everyone. Go back through her posts:...
Very interesting. I don’t have the experience with tets that you do, so the bird and bull additions in the exergue (?) are very neat....
Hi all. I have been reading this so long I don’t remember how I started. But this nice lady does a great blog. If you aren’t reading it, you...
@Ancient Aussie Thanks a bunch! I have to give credit to @Mat because he spotted it first and told me about it. It was a long time wish list coin.
@ancientone That is a nice group of coins. The Tavium issue of Julia Domna is something I’ve tried to add and failed a few times. I’m jealous....
I’m not sure anyone will be surprised: [ATTACH] Septimius Severus, Denarius, VOTIS DECENNALIBVS AR Denarius Septimius Severus Augustus: 193 -...

@curtislclay Thank you for the quick response. I will have to look up those old lots/catalogs and the Metcalf article. This just adds another...
That’s very interesting, @curtislclay. I was unaware of the recalculation of regnal years by Caracalla after Septimius’ death and the...
That’s a very interesting coin, @Mat. I also have not seen a year 19 for Geta. I honestly would have never thought there would be an issue...
I have but one to share. [ATTACH] Probus, Antoninianus, ABVNDANTIA AVG BI Antoninianus Probus Augustus: 276 - 282AD Issued: 277 - 281AD 23.0...
I tend to agree with @Valentinian and @red_spork here. Without demand, a coin can be unique but it may not have a buyer anywhere. I think the...
