Don't I wish. Maybe I could sell my car. Maybe not.
Nice coin. I will be looking for more coins in this little sub-set. I have my eye on the one with Antony's portrait as mentioned in the quote from...
Thanks Bing, yes it's my image that I did an hour ago and the color is correct or darn close to it. Maybe the coin has less brown/gold tone to it...
I will be extra careful with it but it looks pretty solid. Maybe it's more slightly pitted. It looks pretty good under a 5x loupe.
I got this denarius in the mail yesterday. It's a bit porous but has plenty of nice detail. It is cataloged in Sear The History and Coinage of the...
I just meant a thread of JC coins to commemorate the day.
I hope you start an Eids of March thread next month so we can all enjoy the great JC coins that you and some others have. I know I never get tired...
That is a wonderful coin with a realistic portrait. Any collector would be proud to own it. Congratulations.

I just ordered this one a couple of days ago with boar and tunny fish/lion. Maybe we both caught the same bug Bing. Maybe I'll have a tunny fish...
Great coins. I'm attracted to these tiny coins too. It amazes me that they were able to put so much artistry into such a small package. I wish I...
Thanks Romance Collector. I appreciate you contacting them and letting us know. My purchase was small but I am still looking forward to getting it.
I have recently found a couple of my coins to be fake. It sure hurts but it just made me want to be a more educated collector and learn from my...
I'm still waiting for shipping notice on the last lot I won from Roma.
Looks pretty nice to me.
I'm far from being a photographer but I understand that some cameras just don't do well with macro shots of coins. Mine is a 10 year old Nikon...
As far as the overexposed silver coins, I find its better to use less light or I guess exposure and lighten them up in post processing. You can...
