Good-looking bust on the Gothicus, despite the rough surfaces. I generally don't mind a rough surface if the coin presents sufficient detail. An...
I'm a rank amateur Jerry, but I've got an actual set-up going now - not just hold the coin in your hand and click. But it's going to take some...
Nice work! I can't seem to sell anything for a profit, lol.
That's a tremendous set of coins, TIF. Congratulations again! If those were mine, I'd never need to leave the house.
Just a casual image of three Nabataean lead tesserae. 1 and 2 arrived in the post today, 3 was already in my possession. I just wanted to see them...
The Illuminati.
Well, if you tucked a few under the front of your lower jaw, they would stay there - sort of like chaw I imagine. But it's all conjecture. And...

Constantine I, 8 bucks; Gallienus 11 bucks. vcoins midnight snack :) [img] [IMG]
I got another bargain bin coin while I was at it, a Gallienus. I'll post them in a few minutes.
Eh, what the hell...I bought it. Shipping was only 3. Bing should be proud of me.
You think so? The shipping will make it 10. I'm not so sure. If I saw it at a coin shop for 5 it would be a no-brainer, but I'm not sure about 10....
It's not mine, it's on vcoins for five bucks. I'm thinking I should buy it just on principle - I mean, the details are definitely vf, and the...
Looks like about 2mm, maybe 2.5.
