Two Licinius II [ATTACH] [ATTACH] Three Constantine II [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] The more worn of the two campgates has a smaller bust. Earlier?
Back issue high end sale catalogs like Numismatic Fine Arts and online photos. Color is relatively recent in the coin trade and many of the...
Educate me: How did the Piso make the cut? Obviously I'm missing something.
I'll take the Vespasian. I wonder if the set was cobbled together in Italy about the time they were excavating Boscoreale.
I could not agree more. I have always said that I would like to see RIC issued with the catalog sections removed and all ten volumes introductory...
I'll add a few. I like picture books because I like pictures. I hated seeing someone say they bought ERIC II for the photos because I believe...
BTW, as so often is the case, the most clear legend here is the reverse right side which reads (in Greek) Metropolis. The left side says Antioch.
You knew enough to guess Philip in the first place but you refuse to mention the other father/son pairs near their time. Why? Style is...
In case someone thinks it is weird: At this time Antioch had an Imperial mint making antoniniani and a Provincial mint making coins like yours.
Keep searching. Another clue is the radiate crown on the younger head. You should not use the word sestertius for a coin you know was not Roman...
This is more than a small clue. We see it commonly on silver of the city.
This is a fact. My newest laptop defaulted to different brightness settings when on battery that when on AC. Both can't be 'right'. I do not...
The photo is not large enough for me to read correctly but it seems to be close to 2.2 cm so I'm missing something. I have two digital scales...
Don't ask me in five minutes or contents (certainly order) would change. All have been discussed on CT before. 1-12 - Left to right, top to...
I was going to say it would be OK for me to sleep under it but I'd rather have the t-s Huh? Maybe what we need is a greatest hits of CT fabric.
I'm with Carausius on this one. The coins scooped were not always just the heaviest ones but randomly grabbed coins scooped and returned to the...
I have no H but will share a Thessalonika mint Dalmatius using the variable spelling which is not rare but less common than the E version. [ATTACH]
I am not a major collector of Elizabeth but your fingers make that shilling look like it might be smaller (sixpence?). They all look like things...
I'll have to think about the 12 matter. Three years ago I posted my (then) top 100 but had to cheat and put some extras on the pages linked to...
I agree 100% with the 'drool-worthy' grade Aidan assigned to these coins (and suggest there is a future in professional grading here). I am one...
