Here's a 4th-century BC coin that certainly won't win any beauty pageants, but I'm always fascinated with issues struck by one ruler in the name...
A super patina, indeed, and your photo is also super. I've been studying Byzantines lately and intend to collect some more as well. I wonder what...

Super coins, everyone. I've enjoyed learning more about the Greek coinage with which I'm unfamiliar. Here's a bronze of Philip II, father of...
