Each one is a beauty. #20 and #13 are both beautiful, but the imagery on #16 is fascinating.
Well, here we are at the end of the year, and since many of you have been sharing your favorite acquisitions of the year with us, I figured I...
Io, Saturnalia! I am really glad to see everyone sharing and hopefully liking all of their gifts! Gives me lots of ideas for next year, and I...
That’s a fantastic selection! Though I’ve been more interested in pre-3rd century coins lately, I always have a special fondness for Londinium...
It’s midnight now and I’m still awake, but I’m determined to wait for morning so I can do a proper unboxing and take photos along the way. I’m...
Looks like LS to me, @Ocatarinetabellatchitchix
Those are all fantastic, @Curtisimo . The Diocletian argentius is one of the most beautiful third century coins that I’ve seen. EDIT: Name...
Many thanks, @Ken Dorney and @TIF!
Do you mean in references, or on the coin itself? The date is on the obverse, rather than the usual obverse. It's directly by the neck of the...
I've been researching this new acquisition, and haven't been able to find a reference to it in Dattari (the original edition, no access to Savio)...

2018 has been a great year, but I have a few goals for next year: - Move towards having one coin of each emperor who ruled pre-200 AD (doubt I...
Here's an as of Rubrius Dossenus. You can just make out the snake wrapped around the column between the heads of Janus, and its head poking out...
As far as I know it is largely a matter of interpretation. However when I look at them I see a lot of resemblance between the Alexander Heracles...
So far so good! This has been my secondish year of actively collecting ancients (more like 1.5th year), and I have certainly diversified my...
Entry Post! I also recently crossed the one year mark, though it hardly seems like it. I am immensely grateful for the opportunity to be a...
Here's a new one I just got in the mail. Most of the important iconography is intact, and I don't think it would be possible to find one in the...
