Thanks. A revision done in 1975 is still woefully inadequate for what has been learned about the Severans since then. If the 2005 edition...
Very unlikely. An official mule would be better than 'pretty good'; it would be 'right'. There are genuine coins in good metal with dies cut by a...
It started out as a denarius but chipping and corrosion have removed over a gram of metal leaving what you now have.
I love search engines. I made up a word for this: Leocamp. Then I searched and found out that actually was what you call it. Taking Latin fifty...
Thank you. Do you know what was changed in volume V that caused it to be labelled differently? Were coins added? Numbers changed? Organized...

Nice as. I doubt the denomination had much buying power this late so the demand was down from the glory days. My sestertius weighs 17.1g and,...
It is getting harder to remember others that have not been shown several times so I'll dip to maybe lions. This denarius shows an encounter...
Great job on round one all you pilers-on! Now is time to show as many more that you did not show the first time. Velia fourree stater [ATTACH]...
See, Steve, I told you Martin had more. When he writes a book, buy it! If he does, I hope he will use a couple photos I have that he lacks. I...
Cool. Emmett lists a total of 14 variations/dates for lion diobols between Aurelius and Commodus. Of them, all but two are rarity 5. Which two?...
Most office supply stores sell 65 pound acid free card stock. Scrapbook suppliers produce a large variety of safe printed papers/cards if you...
This explains why I stopped looking at European sales. I am in this for fun. Dealers and those who like this situation can support it. My...
