I love that coin too JB, but not for anything pushing well past $150
Steve, I think you have the tiniest one of all of us....Hmmm, is that good???:rolleyes:
Beautiful coin JB....... and I'm stunned by what Doug's link suggests a 'wolf's head' is actually worth!! Amazing!!!
I collect 'Kramers' coffee table bookso_O
Hmmm, I think you're right.... What were we talking about????
I was just notified I won one of several auction bids---I seem to be winning one of every 3-5 or so that I enter....I paid a bit around average...
Absolutely!! The re-shoots are clearer and have less lighting glare---or none at all--- and are simply superior... One day I'll get there...
The smallest I now have is of a Trihemiobol of Thasos, Thrace---Satyr and vase, circa 400 BC and of 12.3 mm and .86 grams. Unbelievably, even...
How about Septimius Severus??? I bet he wishes he had a vasectomy LOL [ATTACH] [ATTACH] Happy Fathers Day!!!!
I have a few 'slabs' I won at auction from Heritage---and I'm going to set them free too!!! I hate not being able to hold them in my hand.....and...
It looks like 'Chrs' has a match---Don't you think??? Perhaps searching for a coin of Caracalla from Mesopotamia in silver will match yours up ???
I'd guess Antioch too, due to the 'standards' on the reverse----but the portrait and legend are two vague or unfamiliar for me to identify...
Both look fine to me as well---but I can understand Doug suggesting Balbinus be Sears's Certified due to its scarcity and value... Congrats again...
OK for you guys-----splitting everything up between yourselves---but I have dibs on zumbly's hoard!!
Yep, whether dogs or cats, they only pretend to let us think we're in charge...LOL
Beautiful coins, JB and RO.... I have quite a few possibilities at bid right now and I won an Agrippina Senior sestertius and an Aemilian...
Excellent 'duplicates' from all posted...and naturally AJ's post is simply phenomenal... It seems we all have a few similar types, if not exact...
My first thought was of Geta, but the inscription suggests Caracalla---his brother and murderer---and the reverse I think depicts the Emperor...
Interesting 'variety'.... My only siliqua is of Honorius---naturally, a bit pricier than the other typical types
Love the coin !!! Love TETs---and love everything about that Domitian portrait!! So naturally, I HATE IT TOO !:D
