So, old thread, I know, but still. I look out for these too; FINALLY found one with a legible Ob Leg. Sort of, anyway. It's listed for sale in a...
Happy probably isn't the right word. "Interested" maybe? I get junk stuff like this a lot (more than I should, probably) when it's cheap & I don't...
Sorry, I was referring to the original poster. I'm not great at inter-web etiquette. While we're on it, though, I would appreciate any sharing of...
I get a lot of ancient coins that come from outside the USA with the Customs Form declairing the package contains "buttons" or " item of...
Nice find. What show was it?
Doable, sure. Greek silver could bring the cost down a bit on some, if that's an acceptable substitute for a Denarius. But, yeah, I think very...
I picked this junky thing up a while ago. It was only a couple bucks, I think $8 with shipping, on Ebay, & listed as of Theodosius II;...

If you know what to look for, you can pick him up cheap miss/un-attributed. I'm closing in on an AE type-set for him; a lot I got for under $20...
So, I scored one of my "Wish List" coins; top 4 that I have yet to acquire, easy! RIC X 2134, Valentinian III; Vict Stg F, Hd L (or to our R),...
Perfect. Thanks Sky, much appreciated
Can anyone help me out here? In RIC VII, some bust types are described as "....seen from back". (Ex: bust laureate, draped & cuirassed /vs/ bust...
[ATTACH] This coin. Screen shot of me loosing it at auction (grrrr). Seriously hope that whoever got it knows what they have. It's a rare...
Old thread, but gotta say; wow! Ever get to leaning one way or the other? Pulcheria is my guess. Spelling gets...interpretive on AE of the time....
