I can't quite make out the mintmark in the photos. Is it a P or a D? Looks like it might be a P to me. If it is a P, then you do at least have...
Merged the duplicate threads.
That huge portrait on the OP coin is really neat. That really reminds me of the one I used to have. These are not great pictures, but that coin...
This was my initial thought as well. 50 or 53.
It has pretty nice surfaces. I agree with the grade. Sorry, I had initially posted a too-small picture here, and didn't realize that because I...
I'm not so good at the subtle, but occasionally I stumble across the obvious.

Balbinus gets a "wow" from me. Never had him. I did have a Pupienus sestertius once, which was the Wildwinds plate coin for its type, but it...
BTW, I specified 12 minimum on the cent, and 62 minimum on the 3cN.

There will be TrueViews, too. Haven't seen those yet. Eagerly awaiting that.
That's extremely close. I'll wait a little while and post the shared submission page later, so you can see just how close. ;) Or if anybody...
Faster than I expected. Take a guess at how these recent newps fared at PCGS. This was my first time submitting for crossover in the other TPGs'...
Perhaps "Parliament Collection" merely references the collective noun for owls? A group of owls is called "a parliament of owls", just as in "a...
I posted this here back when I acquired it in a 2017 swap, but since someone just asked what it was on my gallery post, I'll add that information...
Back in my antique mall dealer days, I had my own custom wooden nickels (and later, dollars). Some of the latter might still be floating around...
To my knowledge, the only fourree I have owned is this Vitellius, which NGC called a plated ancient forgery. I didn't see it, but they know more...
Well, you've gone way farther than I have in 43 years of collecting. I've only really collected ancients for 12 of those years, and even then not...
Collect Greenland? Well, I have one in my collection. Does that count? :) Felt I had to have a Greenland polar bear in the Eclectic Box....
I like the brassy metal on these. Hey, if you started with something unrecognizable, then things have improved. Neat historical relic of a...
Separate names with a comma.
