This is what we get when a civilization is based on the theory that outsiders need to be killed on sight and written history is not worth doing....
See: http://www.academia.edu/880242/Coinage_of_the_Nezak Type 150 looks close but the one with closest obverse is var.3 while var.2 shows the...
Since what you seek is an overview, it might be good to look at overviews selected by others. In this case I might suggest looking at the book...
[ATTACH] Specifically, I'd like to know the meaning of the marks/characters in the right field and what was missing at the left. Was the incuse...
I believe this is an impossible question for a finite answer but one that would accept enough answers that we have to say you can do what you...
Really? What I see requires about 80 degrees to the right to be correctly up side up. Please don't suggest a universal language. You may get...
Now I read that Juno was an early type for her so the old portrait might be from the cutter not knowing what she looked like quite yet....
Frank Robinson 1999 $79. I suppose that would double today? I observe that in many cases where the obverse is considered desirable, the scarcer...
Just for the record, she has other types as well. Here is Juno. [ATTACH]

Assuming proper silver at current rates, melt would be about $30. I'm not sure how to value a replica but there obviously is a market for these...
Valentinian's gamma example might be the rarest of the four by one tidbit of information. RIC lists where they found examples of the coins they...
I doubt there is anyone except, perhaps, an institution like the British Museum that could ever own all 100. You will note that Berk credits the...
Really? My two: [ATTACH] [ATTACH] I have never looked into rarity (or cared much) but the Bargain Bin coin would seem reasonable and worth...
In looking through the acsearch sestertii, I considered this one the finest style. Certainly it is high grade but I value the extremely fine die...
There may be no sestertius more impressive than a nice Galba. They made the big that year and he had a face only a die engraver could love. The...
I agree with Randy. I have the denarius with this reverse and can only say that it looks like absolute trash compared to your big guy. Martin's...
IMHO the strongest case for the coin being genuine is the crystallization. A cast taken from a genuine coin that has crystallized must be...
