Looks to be a Lugdunum dupondius RIC 523. Very nice condition too. Online Coins of the Roman Empire: RIC I (second edition) Nero 523
Probably a call to Legacy Customer Service, since they still maintain the PCGS Currency database it seems......
Almost certainly in fact - since they would not have circulated if better. Trajan finally finished them off - seeing the examples in the OP you...
Just in from CNG Islamic 6 - a tiny piece of Medieval gold from Morocco. [ATTACH]
Interesting local banknotes for sure. #1: 1 Franc - Chambre de Commerce de Nice et des Alpes-Maritimes (06) - Commune of Nice #2: 50 Centimes -...
These don't get out much - my interest was due to the fact my Dad worked in Sierra Leone between 1942-56. Would almost certainly recognise it -...

Retrograde legends are common for these, only the more skilled engravers could manage to engrave retrograde on the die. Books illustrate the...
Never bought from CNG - you must be new. The only problem with them is that every collector on the planet is registered.. Bargains are few and...

It looks to be Edward Confessor Pointed Helmet type (1053-6), moneyer Godwine - with all letters on flan. The mint name is on the missing half....
You did well, slabbed and all. The prices seem crazy nowadays for these, I paid €340 from Naumann for mine years ago (and it seemed a lot at the...
You've got a good variety of types there, Legal Tenders, FRN and SC/GC. My only 1928 is the $20 GC. They most certainly don't make them like...
Interesting video - external packaging is pretty much spot on, but the density of the metal gives the game away. Given the price differential...
