I am aware of no site that only discusses AE coins. Most of us have more AE than AR. A very few have more than a few gold coins. The other...
Exactly! It is sometimes fun to look at a well struck worn coin and imagine how it looked when new but many coins are simultaneously mint state...

IMO Valens is a good guess. He is one that used that reverse and the loose spacing between the letters that we have suggest it is more likely a...
That makes sense. From a political sense, the type was to illustrate that the matter of succession was under control and there was no reason to...
Something I had not noticed before: The reverse legend starts at a different point on each of the three coins shown (all different dies). My coin...
I have never understood traditional dating of these (2 BC to 4 AD). We are to believe that the type was continued until Caius died in 4 AD while...
Does it matter for this use which version of Filemaker Pro you use? I see references to 12 through 15 online.
IMHO, you might be the first collector to touch the coin and possibly the first person who will love it for what it is and not what profit it will...

Unfortunately prices realized suggest a decent Fine like this will attract little attention even compared to a poorly centered poorly struck VF....
This is exactly the decision we all must make. Do you get more enjoyment out of 3000 F or 30 EF+ coins. You will have an easy time selling the 30...
Just in case anyone is not familiar with the type, Volodya's coin is a great example of a type that usually comes poorly struck and/or worn. Even...
I do not know what TIF's requirements will be but standard 'wisdom' has been requiring 300 pixels per inch meaning a 4x6 print (the small size)...
We are touching here on what I consider a natural part of collecting. I once was a more specialized collector than I am now. I have always had...
I know TIF is well aware of the matter but I suspect many contributors to this project are missing the point when she asked for images. When you...
There is a very common aureus of Julia Domna with the Venus from the rear reverse. The gold ones tend to be very well done. All I have are the...
I live ten miles from Petersburg and a neighbor has found such bullets in his yard. Mine never was searched but may have some although the inn...
Forty years ago tonight I had the privilege of photographing the Washington DC Bicentennial fireworks show from the top of the Washington...
In this country, we frequently overlook the real reason for this holiday and focus instead on having a picnic. Kroton AR stater [ATTACH]...
