You're like a cheerleader at a chess match, lol.
Found another today, with mint mark R star P. These come in wreath and star marks, each with P and S officinae, for a total of four varieties from...
I really love that the engraver made Cupid and the goat so large - the reverse has incredible style. The size on Bing's coin is more typical -...
They're both great, but I'm most impressed with the centering on the reverse of the quinarius. These are all over the map. Finding one with a...
I thought about it. A blank Dansco dimes folder would do the trick.
Yeah, me too of course, but in general, museums don't like coins. They're too small and uninteresting to most. The best displays are two-sided,...
I like the slower version very much. It seems a good way to present a basic glance at a set of coins.
Nice read, MM - you obviously do your homework! A miliarense, huh? Don't see those everyday. [ATTACH]
It's pretty crusty, but I'm leaving it as is. With 6000 coins in the hoard, Currelly probably did little else than rinse and brush them off enough...

Palm branch. Trier also issued varieties with a wreath between the standards. All told, there are some 65 or so varieties recorded in RIC. I don't...
I seem to be taking this collection seriously, so I figured I'd dedicate a thread to it. I'm not sure why I'm taking it seriously, however -...
Hey, sorry about that Chris! Great detail on that facing bust, though - usually the faces on those types are pretty smushed.
I can't make out the officina from the seller's pic. It'll have to wait until I have it in hand.
Doug is being a bit sneaky here. I would take the second coin first, knowing I could find the first any day of the week. :bookworm: It seems to me...
I picked up this AE3 tonight. I've been looking for this type, which is generally rough. I'm glad I waited it out - this example has full legends,...
lol
You have to scroll down.
Good eye.
Who knows. On any given day, probably hundreds of fakes get sold on eBay. It would be pointless to post them all. The only reason I posted this...
