Almost all of my purchases consist of individually slabbed coins and currency, and the occasional item in mint packaging. However, when I came...
I’ve never exchanged currency in the US due to the horrendous commissions. I was in Santo Domingo earlier last year and noticed the same thing....

This was my haul from a recent business trip which was my first time in India. Even though there are notes up to 2000 rupees, I never saw...

I like all of them but the Hadrian sestertius is off the charts! It stands out to me because I know how difficult it is to find sestertii without...
