I may do that but first I need to know what it is worth... what is a reasonable asking price? Not being a currency collector, it's a difficult...
You're probably right. I only paid attention to the reverse scene and will take it in whatever size is available.
Very nice! As for the Genius standing types, yeah... but their size and often good condition makes them nice. I want a large tetrarchal bronze...
BCC: I understand where you're coming from with that advice. However, there are no more heirs in the family. Neither my brother nor I had...
Hi all, While visiting my mom recently I came across this pristine CSA note. I'd already gathered and sold the rest of the old family currency...
It may be a GLORIA ROMANORUM of Honorius or Theodosius II. [ATTACH] image from Tesorillo I know little about LRB but find Tesorillo's website...
My Thessalian coins wanted to meet the new neighbors so I'm bringing them to your BBQ :) You should keep an eye on Herakles though. He can be a...
Congratulations on acquiring this spectacular coin! The portrait is extremely artistic and the reverse scene has incredible detail.
Picture cropping would be helpful. Right now you have a teensy tiny coin hidden in a sea of background. Yes the pictures are...

Send it to me. I'll photograph it. It may take a few years :D
No, there is no wreath in the eagle's beak. I'm not sure what the "halo"-ish thing is on my coin-- just odd wear. The eagle's head is facing...
No, I think the flan manufacturing techniques must've been different for these Roman Egypt coins. I haven't seen any with a dimple.
(drool)... that's a type I'd love to have! The facing quadriga is fantastic. You don't have a picture of yours? :(
That's a purty patina and I love the Europa reverse! I too am a sucker for all things Elagabalus. Here are the provincials of his in my...
Sometimes patience is not my forte. This is a good example. I've been wanting this type of coin-- the first issue of Roman Egypt-- for a year or...
[ATTACH] Totally looks like.
It is definitely a sticky issue. Thanks for the link.
I was very busy and didn't fully vet the Roma auction so I didn't bid on anything. A quick post-auction review shows that Roma (or their...
Wow yes... fantastic portrait!
