@Sallent and @Nap and I are gonna start the "Seljuq Lion Club" for anyone else who wants to join! It was bedeviling me why I could not see the...
Yeah, those I recognized as being the same.
Good luck! Will be a tough emperor to check off the list. Besides, "Pertinax" is a cool-sounding name.
Cathy - Thanks! Yes, Photobucket has gone off the rails, and become utter garbage. I once might have given them a small fee to continue the...
I can't believe it never dawned on me until just now that the Liberty head on the Type 1 gold dollar is the same one as on the $20 Liberty...
Why am I unable to see @FitzNigel's original post? For me, the first post visible is @Mat in Post #2. For my primary "Eclectic Box" collection:...
Covered by damage, I'm afraid. That one got chewed up somehow. Metal got moved around in the process. Worth 25 cents, but a vending machine...
This was once the centerpiece of my "Holey Gold Hat" collection. Zeno (emperor of the East, A.D. 476-491). AV Solidus. Thessalonica, A.D. 476 or...
It just dawned on me that I did not have this coin in my album of gold from the hat. It was the very centerpiece of the "Holey Gold Hat"...
"Excepted?" o_O Oh! You mean "accepted"? I don't think that will be an issue. Pretty much anyone can join. That's a good place to learn....

It looks cast. The details aren't as sharp as a struck piece. They're "mushy". It's a bit too round. (Then again, maybe not- my real one is...
I know nothing of paper currency, but I really like that 77444444. Cool.
Holy crap! You were right! That coin is a copy, all right... but it's a copy of an Aethelred II penny like mine! That's nuts! What a bizarre...
I'd call that VG except for the lack of any letters in LIBERTY. I suppose this is one of those ambiguous situations, as you've discovered. The...
You could have found a replica, 'tis true. They're out there. There are movie prop coins that look like this. And I think some of the Lord of...
I think you're right, but unfortunately I know next to nothing about Indian temple tokens.
Post a picture of it. Would be pretty hilarious/amazing if you found a Viking-era hammered silver penny in a dime roll! LOL Wouldn't happen,...
That rouble deserves better photos!
Not all of mine in the "Eclectic Box" are slabbed yet, but a number will be going off for certification and encapsulation soon. I'm hoping to...
