I agree with this. VG+ to borderline Fine. Cleaned, but the old cleaning doesn't bother me too much. It's a respectable coin for one's first...
@IrishLuck - I see you're using Numista lookups now. Good for you!
I agree. This sort of Art Deco period in French coinage is very appealing. And they're frequently found in bulk lots. As a matter of fact, I've...
Oh, I like that fish! The lettering almost looks similar to Scandinavian runes. The patina really sets it off. I wonder what it says.
While I disagree with the slab-haters on a number of points (though I confess they also make some valid points of their own), I wouldn’t do that,...
Another Flavian. Here's the Titus denarius from my first ancient collection. It was low grade but I liked it for the toning and the capricorn....
(Talking about the slab): It looks great! So is that a new thing, then? I wondered. Hope so. I love that it's free of those ghastly white...

So 460-some pounds, for my fellow Americans. Not quite a quarter of a ton, but heavy enough that you wouldn’t want to drag it around to parties!...
Thanks for the update! I hope you’re enjoying your sojourn in Canada. Seemed fitting to ship a Canadian token there. :)
And another fake…
This one, too
Well, this coin is fake.
I confess I have no idea about how this site or its point system works. You’ve got me looking closer at the coin. The 6 in the date looks a tad...
That's a krater you could bathe (or drown) in! It must weigh a ton! (Maybe literally?) I'm envious of your visit.
This is me as well.
