I will be sure to do so, next time! I'm sorry I offended you, @ominus1. All my knowledge comes from Deliverance. And Winter's Bone. What would be...
Congratulations, @Ryro! I must say I had exactly the same thought as @Shea19: who's the hillbilly in photo # 3 in the blue denim overalls with...
The Helios Gallery in the UK is quite reputable. (He usually has some wonderful Roman glass vases if you like that!) So is antiquities.co.uk (run...
One small new addition to my tray: George II AV Half-Guinea 1756, Spink 3685, KM 587. By John Croker. Obv. Old laureate head left, GEORGIUS·II·...
12-hour rule. I have no Augustus from Antioch, but here's an Augustus from Pergamum, which is usually classified both as an Imperial and a...
I wonder if the Newman Numismatic Portal or RNumis or anyone else would be willing to bear the cost of placing your run of Spink Numismatic...
