I think it depends. There is a famous large cent dealer from Omaha who always had great coins, he had them because his prices were much higher...
Nice coin. Btw sir, your were right about me suffering through Leu, but that is simply the latest. I did manage 6 lots in Pars, but that was...
I am wondering if this sounds familiar to others: 30 days out - OMG, I am going to buy SO much. I wonder if the mailman will get a hernia...
Like I said, I would defer to more of an advanced collector of Ardashir coins. I just didn't see a match in SNS, Tom Mallon's site, Sellwood, or...
Good job. Personally I would call the coin a F and not a VF, but the pic could be deceiving.
Yeah, that Capta is on a ton of people's wish list. Nice pick up.
Top one looks like a Taxila issue, not sure if Kushan. Similar geography and timeframes as Kushan issues, so I see a lot of Taxila coins mixed in...

OP, I know I am late to the thread but your coin is better than 90% out there at least. Nice coin. Anyone wanting to get into Byzantine coins I...
I agree. It has always been the most available of the three from the series for some reason. I have bought extra copies cheap over the years...
I would generally agree with your page sir. I own most save for the very esoteric ones like the Italy volumes. If you have Sear and DOC you are...
I think it would be hard to find a coin you could prove was altered to be used as a tool. I would think if it was still visible as a coin you are...
No sir, I am referring to references like "Sogdian Traders" that refer to hundreds of source documents about the trade on the Silk Road, how the...
That is what I like. This is why I buy low premium gold coins, much more interesting than bars. Even if gold never increases, I get the pleasure...
Where do I remember reading somewhere about "heavy" or 1.5 siliqua? Anyone else remember such a thing? I have too many books I cannot recall which...
