Thanks, Doug. So apparently the coin was issued to coincide with some city games that were sort of like the Pythian games. Interesting that there...
I received this coin in a bulk lot that I won in a recent auction, and I have some questions, (despite the nice notes that came with it). Here's a...
Got this in a batch of uncleaned coins. Had just enough of the obverse inscription to identify it as Vitellius. Some day I'll replace it, maybe,...
Wow! Two of the nicest examples I've seen. My more humble pair: [IMG] Quietus Augustus, A.D. 260 Antioch mint Billon Antoninianus Obv: IMP C FVL...
I have had packaged marked "delivered" online that never showed up. Yes, they probably were delivered, but not to the correct address. Since the...
Absolutely, Sallant. I agree with everything you wrote. That's why I was scratching my head over the (apparently recent?) use of the term as a...
Perhaps putting "Gay" in the listing title will help him sell an $8 coin for $47.25.
As someone who has no great love of Constantine (even though I collect his bronzes), I can't help noticing that both you and Dane at wildwinds.com...
Yes, I'm in. Where, when and how do we enter?
Quick question: Is there a limit for how long you've owned the coin? I have several coins that I've owned for around 10 years. I paid less than...

I've been collecting bronze coins of Constantine the Great for awhile now (http://feltemp.com/Constantine_1.html). Yet the more I learn about the...
Oh, I own coins of all kinds of despicable people. Hard to avoid with ancients. But it's a question of where I want to focus my primary collecting...
I started collecting Constantine after I found one of his scarcer coins in a batch of uncleaned coins. I also liked the facts that: a) he was one...
I think it's more of a marketing device. It's critical that auction houses have good material to sell if they are to stay in business. If you have...
Here, here. Why should I list a coin at a reasonable price when I can list it at 3 or 10 times its value and let it stay up there for months on...
You were not the first one to try that option. I tried to pay by check a long time ago and the check never arrived, so I ended up paying by credit...
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think what icerain is questioning is why sellers should charge buyers extra for paying with PayPal.
And yet, Agora always seems to send out their items within a day or two of receiving payment, at least in my experience with them.
