How do you differentiate Rome versus Laodicia? I’m trying to pinpoint the RIC and it seems to be either RIC 2 Rome or RIC 95 Laodicia. Any tips?...
Looking forward to the details. It’s like Christmas in July.
Do you mind PMing some of their eBay names to me? Sounds like it would be fun to watch some of those listings.
I see these on eBay and almost pull the trigger but then have the same reservations.
The discussion group you’re referencing is it Forum Ancient Coins?
I just assumed it was a matter of who has “eyes” on the coin. So many auctions always running on the web back to back or even simultaneously....

Wow, those are all wonderful. I still haven’t owned a Hamilton yet though I love the Khaki line. Any military inspired watch or tool watch design...

Tremendous write up and detail @Stork . Thanks for sharing. It’s motivating for me to get more organized. Do you know which of the three...
I’m about 12 months into buying ancients. At first I was wary, but the good folks at CoinTalk turned me on to some great dealers. Buy with...
That’s lovely toning. How long has it been sitting out on the table?

Separate names with a comma.
