Nice addition
I have to agree. Plus I have to point out that the Salvs coin I posted yesterday is not Allectus, but rather Victorinus. My attribution was...
Very cool my friend. Nice addition especially since this one is not fake (but you could have fooled me with the fake). [ATTACH] CLAUDIUS AE As...
And one more: [ATTACH] TRALLES, LYDIA CITY COINAGE AE18 OBVERSE: Laureate head of Zeus Larasios right REVERSE: DIOS TRAL-LIANWN, thunderbolt,...
I should pay more attention as I posted a silver coin where the thread obviously called for bronzes. Sorry about that. A lot of issues around...
[ATTACH] TARAS, CALABRIA AR Diobol OBVERSE: Head of Athena in crested helmet left decorated with Skylla REVERSE: Herakles kneeling right,...
Very nice! I like this coin very much; however, having said that, the seller's images make the coin out to be in much better condition than your...

Another outstanding coin AJ.
Very interesting. With just a little imagination I can see Pax riding a donkey on the reverse.
We (collectors) call it an AE19 based on type of metal (base metal) and size 19mm. What the actual denomination was called when minted I have no...
I believe these must be fairly common. I even have one similar. Yours is in fair condition, but perhaps over cleaned (?). Anyway, here is mine...
The reverse makes this coin. Very interesting. Congratulations lil Bro.
Very nice. I take it the auction images are more true to the coin's coloring? Either way, I like this coin. You did well. Congratulations! I...
How about showing the reverses. Many times, the reverse can narrow where they were minted as well as the year of mint. And, btw, depending on...
Very nice coin Martin. I especially like the detail on the reverse. The look on Elagabalus' face is intriguing as well. Look at the eyes. They...
