I am a sucker for late Roman coins from Alexandria. Galerius Æ Follis. 308-310 AD. IMP C GAL VAL MAXIMIANVS P F AVG, laureate head right GENIO...
I would say it is fairly close I can never quite get the colour right though. My tablet always has some trouble with coins just because it isn't...
Quite like this one. Maximinus II, AE follis, Rome. 305 AD. MAXIMINVS NOB CAES, laureate head right SAC MON VRB AVGG ET CAESS NN, Moneta...
I don't believe it to be a fourree and it wasn't listed as such in the CNG listing. I was also considering cleaning the quinarius but am hesitant...
Super happy with the coins. Looking at the coins now I think the winning bid was quite nice. Funny you should mention the second part. I just...
Next up is the little quinarius on Augustus. I really like this coin and overall it is in good condition. I just find the toning so unattractive...
So, I may have accidentally taken a nap :oops: Partook in a little bit too happy juice last night. Here is a close up of the RR denarius Steve...
Thanks for the kind words! Please let me know if you think I have made a mistake in any of the attributions. I am lazily attributing them while...
I took a page out of TIF's book and bought a group lot of 16 coins for myself from the CNG sale. As many have known I am potentially having a...
I agree with JA. The meaning is pretty straight forward with a belly dance skirt. He clearly wants her to take lessons so he can have some peace...
Nice article. Thanks for the link! Whenever I have been to a museum that has even a couple of coins the display truly is frustrating because you...

Quite the interesting coin VK. The die used seems excessively large for the size of the flan. It looks like you have a good portion of the name on...
Awesome find Bing. 14 bucks for an RR denarius in any condition seems incredibly hard to find. You have an eye for the hidden treasures!
I think I actually have one of these as well but from Ferdinand. I have never gotten around to actually attributing unfortunately. It was one of...
Usually I am not really a fan of silvering on a lot of the coins but in this case I find it quite attractive. What a beautifully struck coin....
Jovian looks a little shocked on the coin. Like he just received some 'wtf' news. I just imagine him saying 'The Persians are doing what?!?!?' I...
Awesome coin AJ as always. The toning around the Chimera reminds me of Hades' hair from the cartoon Hercules movie. Not something I would mess...
Happy belated Mat. I unfortunately don't have any Roman ladies to add. I have been looking for the right one and it just hasn't come up yet.
Excellent page Doug. I must admit though my favourite coins on your list are not the ones that are unique or have intriguing stories about them....
