One of my numismatic New Year's resolutions was to begin collecting the extensive Restoration series of bronze coins struck by Titus and Domitian....
I got this coin rather cheap on eBay last month, just a little under $40. However, I recognised it was not just another worn and dirt common...
I won this sestertius in early December and worryingly it disappeared from tracking shortly after leaving Germany on the 15th of December. After...
I recently picked up this overlooked bargain basement Domitian as Caesar as because it is quite rare and has some level of eye appeal. And I like...
I recently picked up a relatively inexpensive copy of Catalogo completo della collezione Dattari Numi Augg. Alexandrini, A. Savio, ed. (Trieste,...
I've always wanted to add this hugely symbolic dynastic type struck for Titus. Recently, this bargain specimen came up for sale. The piece has...

... or some such fate may have met the poor engraver who made this die error under Domitian. [ATTACH] Domitian - Engraver's Error Æ As, 12.69g...

For some reason the obverse suffered a bit more than the reverse on this Titus Caesar dupondius. But not enough that I'd turn it away! [ATTACH]...
Today seems to be an appropriate time to post this recently acquired Felcitias dupondius. CNG was very good to me earlier. :angelic:...
