While I rephotographed this coin last week, it didn't turn out too well. Better results today, although I think the reverse might be a little out...
I've perused their stuff for a couple years, but never actually pulled the trigger
That's always been my problem... they're a little steep. There's a half-penny on v-coins I've been looking at. Might nab it (b-day's coming up,...
There are a couple different Irish coins with john's name. As king, he issued a full penny, half penny, and farthing (not cut pennies like in...
Well done, sir! I have been looking for a good one of these for a reasonable price for some time now (two years in fact...). I only have an...
I'm happy to help in any way I can as well. May I make one suggestion to change the title 'Dark Ages' to 'Early Middle Ages'? 'Dark Ages' is...
Frankly, I agree with you. I enjoy the ANA's magazine, but there's not enough ancients or medievals... and as I said above, I'd be more willing...

May the participants in this round vote? (I've gotta at least get one vote against Zumbly's awesome coin!)
The first looks like a Venetian Ducat. Are the features that soft, or is that the photo?
I am going to guess by using the Islamic calendar... but then it should be even more than 2500 shouldn't it? Okay, I change my guess to relying...
I can add two German coins, but I'm lacking my attributions since I'm on my phone (playing 'separate the kitties' as they try to get used to one...
What a fortuitous day for this thread to be revived - just brought this guy home from the shelter... [ATTACH]
Thanks GD - looks like the cost limit was removed? Just making sure I understand the new rules if we're doing this...
I only just noticed the question about Saladin's coins - they do exist. I don't have any, but I'm fairly certain I've seen others here post them....
I honestly just use the Seaby/SPINK manual. It has a description of the different styles which you can kind of suss out (after narrowing it down...
Separate names with a comma.
