It's a pity that this otherwise very interesting thread has turn into two people bickering against one other. To stay on topic: I've got two...
I so envy you Americans finding all the cool stuff. Here in Europe, ... Anyway, I am intrigued. The obverse to me reads “LIBRARY”. You interpret...
I'm not quite agreeing with this statement. The same sentiment could be directed towards art ("just a combination of paint and canvas"), music...
This one is just in: my only bracteate. It's a late-Medieval copper bracteate from the city of Arnhem in the Netherlands, and can be dated at ca....
@Andrew McCabe I should have been more clear. The answer to the multiple choice question is C: I have not seen the catalogue and am asking for help.
This very small silver Durotriges "three men in a boat / thunderbolt" quarter stater was sold to me as "ex HR Mossop collection". [ATTACH] I...

Thanks all for the reactions. Interesting points have been raised here: This is exactly not what I'm doing. Basically, there is available data,...
Thanks @Ed Snible for other synonyms. For case study one (JC denarius elephant), I've added "Toning" (mentioned yes/no), "luster" (mentioned...
Here is the relation between the hammered price and the month of the year for test case 1 (JC denarius with the elephant). The linear assumption...
Thanks @Orfew, @Ken Dorney and @pprp. You are probably completely right: it will be almost impossible to reach safe conclusions. Generally, it is...
