Great coins! I love coins from Alexandria. The drachms are much sought after and can get expensive fast even if in very worn condition if the...
Don’t have time to write about them right now as I’m posting from my phone but here are a few of my favorite bulls. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Nice coin! Here is mine: [ATTACH]
Nice coins! Here is mine, [ATTACH]
I love this ugly thing and wish I had a nicer one but these funeral pyre types are rare and usually more expensive than I’d like to spend on a...
anytime! Happy to ID anything you have!
Oooooh, those are nice. Great surfaces and silver quality. I like the obverse on the AP! He looks pensive .
Here’s one I added about a year ago to my Alexandrian Tetradrachm collection… a scarcer Claudius II: [ATTACH] Claudius II, AE Potin tetradrachm...
