Who knows - it could have been a coin collector during the samurai era and somehow managed to amass Roman coins.
I'm not certain if it's gold plated platinum - I do own a gold plated platinum but this does not seem right. Overall it looks more like brass. The...
Back more than 10+ years ago, you could have bought an entire collection of commemorative Soviet rubles for 100 USD. This does not include the...
If I was not offended, that is not correct. It is not only my sole responsibility to report all the counterfeits that I see plus they have been...
