These are some recent pictures of my tired and worn out Concordia sestertius of Vitellius. In spite of the extensive wear, I find this hefty...
Agree with Bill - the flaw at 9:00 is a failure in the die. Both coins are from the same die, which would not be anything unusual. Actually, your...
You really do have a very interesting collection of European Medieval coins, tibor. Congratulations - (that is one area which I have not dared to...
Nice coin - happy you finally found it. I like these Peruvian Soles, specially the 1 Sol coins. I lived in Peru when I was a teen and do remember...
Thanks, everybody! The coin is not in high grade but the even, original tone compensates nicely.
What do you guys think? Thanks:) [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Hi Paddy, thank you for your comments. I will take a closer look at it when I am back home in some weeks. In the meantime here is a close-up...
Glad you added your first legionary, Andres. A good example of Legio IIII. You may find you cannot stop at just one....:). I have a small...
Two lil' New Orleans mint half dimes. 23 euros and 18 Euros respectively - bout' 47 bucks. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]

Very nice, Steve! Thank you for posting your eagles.

Very happy for you!
I agree, Bill. The branch mint issues are interesting. Specially the early dates. My aim is to complete a full "O" and "S" mint set, at least...
Thanks everyone for the comments. Much appreciated. Seems like lots of early type collectors like the seated dimes without the stars. Something...
I don't like it. It purports to be an an S-189 Normal date. Yet, there are some anomalies on the reverse, specifically, and you have to look...
I have been expanding my early dime collection lately by adding some seated dimes and focusing on the early dates. The Seated Dime Type which...
Very nice, Chief! LordM, that 1803 should make at least F12, possibly a little more.
