Sorry, you've stumped me Jerry. I'm only collecting LRB's in high grades that I can snipe for cheap, as far as Romans go. But keep trucking!
Well-done, Martin! I watched the auction on the second coin - I was wondering if someone on CT would end up posting it as theirs. At least I think...
Very nice coin - smooth surfaces, good detail. Well-done. My one Maximian is my favorite desert "patina" coin... [IMG]
Good choices. I was watching those auctions myself, but I've got a handful of Constans already, and I decided to hold off for other coins. Ten...
Thanks for the clarification, friend, and welcome to CT!

This was an eBay snipe which I didn't think I'd win for the ridiculously low bid I put in, so I consider it a steal. This is just the edited...
The thing is, a lot of it works just fine - it's not a throwaway. The internal mechanisms aren't terribly complicated and if I need a few parts,...
Beautiful coins, Doug. Kudos! The connect-the-dots technique of engraving letters is so prominent on the first that it's almost a caricature of...
I'm going to hijack my own thread with something not coin-related. Last night I picked up an old 19th-century reed organ from someone who was...
It's not like that. 95% of the coins you see at US coin shows are US coins. A few dealers have ancients, some might have one book of coins, most...
I am enjoying this thread, Jerry - just don't have anything to contribute.
