I emailed them about it. Lot 831 sold, so my coin is probably either with another collector, or at least in transit. Best case scenario in my mind...
Ridiculous. "Julius Nepos' AE coinage is so rare that they show up maybe once per year. Here's 6 in the same auction, several with wrong...
I normally scroll right past the extensive Gordian III in auction listings because I'm generally not interested. However, I spotted this in the...
Very cool finds! The antoninianus has to be Decius, although I am having trouble putting together the legend... it seems that the Abundantia type...
Ha, I live with three picky eaters, so I get clean-up duty for the foreseeable future. Dinner tonight was Wednesday's spaghetti, Thursday's mac...
Ain't pretty, but it's a coin of Quinctilius Varus from Phoenicia, possibly showing two of the Aquiliae that he would later lose in the...
That must have been quite a lot! I don't recall ever seeing a Pupienus ant in a bulk lot, as even in that condition your coin is still easily...
A little shopping fun while you're on quarantine/"social isolation!" Most coins are Greek silver fractions, used in Archaic times as daily...

An incredible find! Asinius Gallus, Governor of Syria 6-5 BC AE16 of Temnos, Aiolis ΑCΙΝΙΟC ΓΑΛΛΟC ΑΓΝΟC, Bare head of Gallus right ΑΠΟΛΛΑC...
Very excited to announce this minuscule discovery in an obscure corner of numismatics! One of the most iconic members of the Indo-Sassanian...

That is indeed a spectacular portrait! I recently acquired a second reign follis, from the London mint under his son in law, Constantine [ATTACH]...
