Many of the "eyes to heaven" Constantine coins I see look more like a chin up, eyes straight ahead posture conveying arrogance. Are we sure it is...
The exact coin (your coin) sold from this eBay seller on May 21st (you?) and last month on April 29th. Did the previous winner return the coin or...
If the coin is already "on the block", then you are simply bidding live-- it's no longer a "prebid". If the coin hasn't hit the block yet, your...
In the Biddr application, a prebid is executed immediately. A proxy bid is not executed until the coin hits the virtual block, so it's like...
:(
All of them which have the name spelled out in full show Y before R (that I recall), so I was puzzled about the transliteration. Somewhere I...
Chris, you mentioned picking it up cheaply on eBay so I suspect you aren't interested in paying $50 or whatever to send it to Sear. Perhaps...

:D:D I had so much fun working on that writeup and diorama. The photograph background and drink umbrellas were ruined by the hurricanes but the...
D'oh... how did I forget to include some of my favorite coins from one of my favorite persons? Ex @AncientJoe: [IMG] KINGS OF MACEDON, Philip...
Very appealing, and with a notably non-squashed nose! That's usually such a problem with front-facers. Mine has a rather dark patina, causing...
Excellent! I hope you and the kids both have fun :) One question which is common when talking about ancient coins is "what would it buy?", so...
I've not seen it but I haven't looked in RIC. However, John Jencek's old website has a "search by legend" function and it recognized the legend...
:wideyed: That is definitely a perk :D
I don't think you overpaid! As noted, you're not selling them, but if you were to individually sell those coins, the Septimius, Domna, and...
