Unfortunately you'll notice that major references as quoted above show differences in the mint attributions so when we quote mint names we almost...
It is easy to stick with a speciality: I specialize in coins I like at prices I can afford.
Nice group. I am personally uncomfortable with any Apollonia Pontica after what we went through with the Black Sea Hoard fakes and do not pretend...
Compared to ones I have seen, the casting seemed a little rough. There are many reasons for something like this but when a coin appears in a post...
Do you folks feel the Tempo Tsuho is genuine? I doubt it.

It is never safe to say a coin is good for certain using only a photo but I see nothing to raise suspicion. Here is a similar one:...
I'm glad to see you set your sights high for the future. ;) We all would like to think that our treasures will be appreciated and the efforts we...

A thunderbolt would suggest Jupiter but the lack of one does not mean it is not the god. Compare this reverse showing Jupiter (right) and the...
BTW: Neither Diocletian example here shows the Emperor on the reverse but has Jupiter and Hercules. Hercules is obvious because of his club and...
Antioch but it is RIC 323 not 322. 322 is a Concordia Militum and your coin clearly does not read IOVI CONSERVATOR-I AVGG but has the Hercules...
IMHO this is a very collectable type. Sear put it in his Greek Coins book but it is in no way Greek but very tied to Roman history of the Punic...
Numidia (North Africa), King Micipsa, 148-118 BC, Not rare but I consider this one pretty nice and having extra interest (some would say a flaw)...
