Next person may continue with "hands", if desired, or go with "stern facial expressions". There were quite a few frowny-faced Roman emperors....
It's a CONCORDIA EXERCITVVM type. "Harmony with the army", or something along those lines. Kind of the First century equivalent of "support the...
WOW at @Stork and @old49er's medals. Here's one for "hands". Roman bronze As of the emperor Nerva, ca. 96-98 AD. [IMG] Let's do "stern facial...
What's with the ridiculous polls?
It is a cool serial number. Not that I know anything about paper money collecting.
Oh- I voted "?" in the poll, BTW. But it was difficult to choose between "?" and "?", since they're such very different options.
Photos of it appear to be somewhat rare. :snaphappy:;) LOL @paddyman98
If everybody's ready for 1788, I have a piece with that date on it, though in this case it's a "sham" 1788. It's an imitation "Spade" guinea...
It does look lamination related. Interesting! I think @ken454 might be onto something. But let the error specialists have the final say on this...
Fun finds! Don't see too many S-mints in circulation here on the East coast.
You're right. Coins and PMs are a nice low-tech collectible. We can enhance the experience with Internet technology and photography and all...
PS- that's a sweet Indian cent! As to the steel cent, if I was gonna crack one out out of a slab to put in an album, I'd have bought an MS64-65...
Fabulous, fabulous! [IMG] @Kirkuleez isn't the only one who's said you should keep posting updates. ;) It's looking really nice, and makes me...
PS- I quite like your year's stack. Great variety there, and some nice individual coins! It's hard not to like gold, isn't it? :) Here are mine...
I buy historic gold coins that have some numismatic value beyond their bullion content, so I'm not really a proper "stacker" (and my holdings are...
It's not perfect - it's a lightly circulated Memorial cent, and Abe's got a dark patch on his jawline - but yes, it's not bad looking, and being...
This is PMD (post-mint damage). The obverse was planed off. And the bird is an eagle. In answer to your question, there's about six bucks worth...
Nice. I'm all too well familiar with the concept of "temporary" coins - perhaps more than most collectors, with my "Eclectic Box" being such a...
Lovely.
I figured it was Irma. I'm just glad everybody came through OK. Had I not had two "piggybackers" on that submission, I would've been a bit less...
Separate names with a comma.
