You've got some great coins there, Icerain. Keep up the good work!
I like it! I've been looking at a few of these Indo-Greek types lately, but haven't pulled the trigger yet. I think the magenta background is fine...
In fact, a few left/left varieties come up on eBay and vcoins once in a great while, but they're all in such poor condition that even Bing would...
Very nice Steve! The right/right combination is common and easy to obtain. The only reason I don't have an example is that I've been buying other...
I admire your expertise in these coins, Chris, and I'm looking forward to your pics. And I'm sorry about the coin purchasing situation in MN. If...
It's too bad the ancients didn't tell us exactly what their coins meant more often. But I suppose if we knew everything, that would remove all the...
It's an absolutely fabulous coin, Joe. Kudos! I have two modest bronzes of Philip II to share, but they are in fairly decent shape for the type....
Here's a picture of my only ten-buck Greek. I looked this coin up on Wildwinds, and the two listed examples weren't as nice as mine, so I felt...
Steve, I think you're smart getting these little silvers from CNG. I've been looking at a few myself, in their shop - some of the more...

I honestly don't know what your esoteric pursuits are when it comes to Byzantines, but I would have been very happy with the coin at the top, on...
I'd be curious to see if anyone has any first-year issues of Vespasian in which the portrait looks like Vitellius. The Roman mint modified a...
He may have been in earnest. It's surprising how little most coin shop owners know about ancients. He may have honestly thought the current spot...
I hope you win it. ;)
An emperor you have to save up for - well, I would have to anyway. Nice coins guys. I particularly like the tripod/raven/dolphin motif.
If I had to post all the auctions I've lost, I'd be doing it all day. The world will always be full of beautiful coins, most of which I won't own....
Your non-virtual pile looks great, Z. I would do that, but I'm too lazy to take all the coins out of their flips and put them all back in.

Fate (Wild Tangent) is my game. In fact, I liked it so much I learned both the code and the modeling software it used to mod my own games.
