Good job! The GAL at the start would sucker many people into glossing over the lack of an A and calling the coin a Galerius when it clearly reads...
There is $100 worth of education in these if you got them unidentified and got to identify them all. After they are labeled, I would consider the...
Run away. Terrible fakes. If you refuse to listen to the advice given here so often to so many you are wasting our time and ours. Buy coins...
The easiest way to dispose of 'a few hundred dollars' worth of 'modest' coins would be to give them without restrictions to a teacher of history...
Each mint seems to emphasize different details. My Galerius from Kyzikos has interesting detail on the inside of the shield including the two...
Thanks for pointing out this site, TIF. I found four specimens of a type I was researching and they showed differences in ID details and the...
One way of getting good feedback would be to ban anyone who might suspect your coins and might complain later. There are plenty of people who...
Victor is certainly correct in this case but there are other places in RIC (some in Vol VIII) where the legend split is noted by the authors and...
Those who read all the posts when these common Domna/Venus coins have appeared before might see that this one is an example of a bit less than the...

Does Samsung make a model that will add ancient numismatic content to posts otherwise devoid of a reason for being other than showing the poster's...
Me, too. John put in a lot of work for our benefit. It was almost like the 'good old days' when I was a member of the Ancient Numismatic Society...
If you are buying fourrees, you can show a little preference for coins with artistic style and pealing patterns or you can just go for what comes...
Probvs.net is a great resource but it takes a little while to figure out the layout. In particular, I prefer to open pages in a new tab rather...
The RIC listing provided shows well the problem with RIC for coins of this period Number 666 not only covers this exact coin but those with four...
My only Kentoripai is a 16mm 2.38g hexas (2 dots) with Demeter and a plow with a bird. That would make it 1/3 of the excellent Pavlos coin....
I'm no student of these but don't see the legends here. I might have guessed Rajaraja Chola or any of the scores of rulers that were related to...
Wow, I almost skipped this thread since it had the word Bullion in the title but when I saw who started it, I have to check it out. I agree that...
That depends on how you look at it. They are not only different reverses but the PROVID is a more scarce 193 AD issue. Mine was from CNG a long...
