@Orielensis Thanks for the kind words. I am sorry that you missed out on this one. I really like your Titus Iovis Cvstos. It is much nicer than...
I love the unusual portrait on that one.
I have been keeping on eye out for one of these for some time. Luckily I was checking the unsold lots on Artemide Aste (I do this often and have...
That is a fabulous coin.
As far as toning goes, this is one of my favourites. Some iridescence on a denarius of Domitian. [ATTACH]
Please supply me with a list of your scholarly publications. Please only supply those that are in fact peer reviewed. When you make assertions...
I have been quite alarmed lately by the number of people jumping up and down and screaming that a coin is fake. Joe on Forum has a saying that I...
I have a few coins of Nero. What I really like is searching for the pre-reform denarii of Nero. Many of these denarii were driven out of...

Wow David that is a great coin with a fantastic reverse. I love it! The terrific provenance is a very nice bonus. Congrats on adding this long...
I believe I overpaid for this one, but I would do so again. I bought it from Ed Waddell's fixed price lit on his website for 400.00 USD plus...
I would have bought the second one as well and for the same reason- the detail on the new one makes this a must have imho. I would love to have...
Thanks @Sallent but I can think of a few people who have many more than I do. I believe that @David Atherton has more than 200 denarii of Domitian...
