I mean what's more Steve than a dragon eating a maiden? An absolute must-have.
Ah. I see. I didn't know there was a distinction until you pointed it out. I don't even know how to make my bidders private, but I wouldn't do it...
I had a feeling you were going to bite on one of those when I posted it. Great coin!
Now take it to the next level and explain all the legends. :)
They may not necessarily be over-cleaned. Gold is mostly inert, so it doesn't tarnish like silver. If you clean it even mildly, it's going to look...
Hey, what do you know? The US Mint goes Byzantine. [ATTACH]
Josh, almost all ancient coins have been cleaned to some degree. Cleaning is just as accepted among collectors of ancients as it's reviled among...
