It's a lovely description and I'm now slightly poorer, as I went out and also bought a halfway decent one, although it's not nearly as nice as...
I'm not sure if there's a set time when they air, Saturday afternoon seems to be a time, but I enjoy Vietnam-era A Date With Chris shows the most...
Very nice! Do you have any cleaning tips for noobs? Like for cleaning late Roman AE3s? Dunking them in olive oil and waiting a long time didn't...
Very cool; I'm hopeless at cleaning coins. Especially cool that you found it!
Well, apparently mine is : DOMITIAN AE drachm. ALEXANDRIA, Egypt. Struck regnal year 15, 95-96 AD. AVT KAI S QEO VVIOS DOMIT SEB GERM, laureate...
Al Kowsky, you might enjoy the internet radio station, My Best Sounds, which plays 1960s-80s AFRTS shows. Interesting topic, and Doug brings up a...
Another main question that I forgot to post; can one infer that Syracuse had a better economy than the capital during this period? How far did...
Very cool! I can't remember what reverse my one and only Domitian Drachm is. I sure love the big Drachmae!
I found this forum through that particular thread on another forum. It actually unintentionally served as a form of advertising. While I still...
I agree, a really fascinating insight about the coinage of Victorinus.
While doing a search on acsearch.info, approximately 30 S 1260 (Justinian II, Constantinople) and 20 Leo III (1514) coins came up, covering about...
Or, are folles of Justinian II, Constantine IV and Leo III (the pre XXX/NNN Leos) being diverted to auction houses? I'd guesstimate that SCL 40...
Still, a heckuva good deal for 22.50. I bought a pretty nice one from Jon Subak years ago, IIRC, and picked some halfway decent ones from 1990s...
A most excellent deal. I don't have Sear open for the exact number, but that is the smaller module issue, correct? 882 was the one on the big...
That's a pretty nice one. I'd like to get a nice one of S882, but opportunity cost comes up; for the same price, I can get a Seleucia or a rarer...
During the reigns of Constantine IV through Leo III, AE issues of Syracuse seem to far outstrip that of Constantinople. One might see a 40 Nummia...
is the 200 pound sterling vcoins Basiliscus AE4 a real one? Not implying either way. It's just one of those coins where one has to use...
Well, I checked off Macrianus and Leo III.
The History of Byzantium podcast has reignited my interest in Byzantine coinage; at least up to 711. I'll have to open my Byzantine Sear to see...
Things had changed during Gallienus' time,but wouldn't a SPQR mintmark in Anatolia make sense? After all, Asia was a senatorial province.
