I was bending over and lifting boxes... Apparently it's diet time. The sad thing is those were the pair of jeans which were too big for me......
You can come by and sniff the coins if you want Alegandron - in fact, maybe some of that leftover plague is responsible for what happened to my...
As of today, I've been on the CoinTalk forums for a year! I was planning on celebrating by going out and getting a new coin, except I managed to...
Quite the achievement Nap! Congrats, and excellent write-up. I've been tempted many times to pick up a styca, and I lived in Northumbria for a...
The Sayles books are great introductory books. Some parts may be a little outdated (I have not looked at the revised editions, but the original...
Very nice! I think I was eyeballing this one too, but I'm having to hold off on purchases because of something coming in the mail...
I think I've posted this before, but I started with US, then a medieval coin: [ATTACH] Poitou, "Angevine Empire" Richard I, r. 1169-1199 AR...

Very nice! And interesting detail on the elephant - what is going around its waist? (Do elephants have waists, or simply mid-section?). I hadn't...
This lovely guy just arrived in the mail recently: [ATTACH] Imperial Rome Caracalla, r. 198-217 A.D. (203 A.D.) Rome Mint, AR Denarius, 20.4mm x...
That's the shocker to me - I'm guessing it was hyped in the UK, and it has a low mintage. I'm happy to sell it for a tidy profit! Thanks for the...
Hello CoinTalk Hive Mind - I would like some advice about what to do with a coin I accidentally purchased. When the Royal mint released the...
It's like an Internet Forum Festschrift! Happy birthday Doug! Doug helped explain centering dots on this coin: [ATTACH] Imperial Rome...
My father bought these scarabs in Egypt back in the 70s - I would have no idea how to tell if these were ancient or not (and I would suspect not)....
I second the idea about getting some books in there - it's the library after all! I'd say pictures, maps, and any write-up explaining the coin...
