Very handsome coin, Mat. Nice find!
Here's my Theo I of the same type. The obverse and legends are weak, but Constantinopolis is well-struck up, which is hard to find. Theodosius...
Those are pretty good pics Steve!
Don't go jumping to conclusions about the hole. A great many collectors of older coins don't mind holed coins at all. These colonials were...
With the first coin, pic 3 is a no-brainer for me. I like to see detail. Anyone who collects early US copper knows how dark these coins can get,...
This is making a mountain out of a molehill. If you want to sell a coin on CT via Paypal, the math is easy. 1. Take your cost of the coin. 2. Add...
Great looking coin. Well-done!
It's Persian, but I don't know Persian types off the top of my head. I'll echo the comment that Chris made, though: it doesn't look right....

I know nothing about the fineness of these coins, but they would have to have some iron in the alloy to rust. Rust is iron oxide, but sometimes...
As a seller, it's easy to calculate the 3% fee into your price. As Peter says, don't ask your buyers to send you "gift" payments, and always ship...
I only have one of Arcadius, and it was an opportunistic grab because you seldom see this type with a well-detailed bust. At 13mm, it's probably...
I'll tell you just how big a sports fan I am: the last time I was in a stadium was twenty years ago, and that was to hear Luciano Pavarotti.
Maybe Sha, the totemic animal of the god Seth, or perhaps Anubis, but both of those are always portrayed with ears standing straight up, not at...
Escudos Ouro - Gold escudos. I'm assuming that note was a gold certificate, and it looks like someone cashed it in on Sept 29, 1942. That would...
Eh, I can't help you. I like them all and would keep them. :)
Been there, done that, :oops:
Wouldn't it be great if you could redeem that bill for 1000 escudos today?
