Very nice crown of William III. Unless there is a problem with the surfaces I'm guessing at least a VF-EF grade. However, I've not a lot of...
I'm wondering if this image with the Sheep or "the Lamb of God" was used to show humility towards God? The Black Death had just entered Europe a...
Actually they only end up temporarily in a museum. From museum acquisition several things happen. 1) Coins not being popular hand-on exhibits...
"It is nice to see a coin where the reverse die isn't very worn...." My Aes of Postumus. A decent but inexpensive example --with a worn Rv die....
Nobody cares about Roman Republican bronze: except true collectors. I haven't seen any upwards price movement on these. By contrast all the big...
Now I see what is wrong. The slab says 50C, yet the coin is obviously a dollar in size!
