Thanks for the notification. Hmm, only $465...what a deal. The toner Morgans are cool, although the toning is probably due to some help. But...
Lol! That's quite a handsome basement bar.
There are some very rare denarii of Philip I, IIRC, and the denarius continued intermittently, mostly as a base metal coin and as possibly a...
That's a very nice coin. Great patina. However, I might be wrong, but I think Domitius Domitianus' series were the last of the provincials.
I'm also excited for you; well done! I have a halfway decent As example in the old, not photographed, section of the collection, but a decrepit...
Thanks! The dealer replied, and the lack of clear provenance isn't his fault. The auction house was vague. I would definitely buy from this...
I have so few Roman coins of the pre-Marius republic. I used not to like the Roma head series, but now I'd like a few. This one has a neater...
My birthday order from Europe came today. It was well-packed, but as some European dealers are wont to do, came with no ID tag/documentation for...
It's good to read about good news!
No worries. I'm not exactly a great coin photographer, either.
Ah, cool. It must have been a trick of the light. The photo made the green look bright and fuzzy. The portrait is quite handsome.
Very nice! That's along the lines of what I'm looking for, but in a larger nummus. I wish that more of the better 'before' coins would be...
Judging from some Severan-era uncleaneds,...
I really enjoyed this thread. The mostly vintage hoards give the coins a lot more context. I'd like to find a stable, green as-found...
It's not my nicest one, but it's my only photographed one. I also only have a couple of Salonina coins. I'm sure the OP is aware of the BD....
I'm not an expert on LRB's, but yes, based on the style and fabric. That looks very much like a c. 400 coin. The later ones become really tiny...
There's also other factors besides stated grade, patina/toning, provenance, centering, artistic value, environmental damage, etc. Aside from some...
It's impressive to have so many of the neater types of Maximianus. I have only an inexpensive example, one of the probably less than 25 AE Ant's...
Very neat! I especially like the Magnentius. Only one coin of mine comes to mind with a tag - I have an attractive Antiochus III tet I have was...
Pictures of teh box? Where to get one, etc.? I've been looking for a ready-made setup.
