I assume you are quibbling with the use of signum as the entire standard when you would prefer each element attached to the pole be counted as a...
It was up to each mint how the matter was handled. The most common use of Roman numerals was to resolve conflicts in a series of ordinal numbers....
Bing, the description does not match the photo but I really like the photo. I may be crazy but I'm seeing a 3/4 facing view of the galley front...
While this thread has drawn several nice galley types, I really like the drawing on the OP Caracalla. Again, it is a type I lack so I'll have to...
I like the OP denarius quite a bit mostly because of the sharp reverse detail. I've never been a fan of Faustina's face but this one is not as...
I had said that this coin is a must have for Latin teachers (how many 4th declension genitives do you think are on coins?) but maybe it is just...

I was like Martin in the mid 1990's. I bought a lot of Septimius Severus, a few Probus and almost nothing after 300AD. I started working with...
Hey, JA, how does one get in line for your selling service? I used to shoot photos for a VCoin dealer who moved to another state and killed that...
Help me understand: What was in the package you refused? If it was the coin and the Vcoins dealer was your friend you could be helping him catch...
...but does he collect ancient coins? It is way too much to expect Wildwinds etc. to have all of the workshops. Mine is E=5; yours I=10; RIC...
I would have bought that one. How do you plan to sell the 42? I have trouble with the concept of someone else wanting coins I don't so I am a...
