Your luck/skill is amazing! So many finds! I also asked a question of you in the blue/aqua Balkans thread.
Hmm, I bet galba68 would know. What AE colors do you most often find?
When possible I collect by patina. Are my favorite patinas, blue and aqua, found mostly in the Balkans? And what's up with Gordian and...
Ah, many thanks! So that means that an expensive (>$500) coin from Germany would be sent the same way the $130 one was? That would save me an...
Here I go again; DHL from NeroNumi :wideyed::wacky:. This one's a totally inexpensive coin so no point in fussing over this one. It will be an...
It's Faustina/Pizza Friday! Congrats on the new book!

It's almost Faustina and (Pizza) Friday! TGIFF!
Was the helmet which Eucratides wore kind of akin to the British WWI helmet?
:cool::cool:I must say, 20 Euros isn't too terrible. I should start a thread asking what is normal to pay for DHL/Fed Ex. I avoid the private...
FedEx/UPS/DHL is the pits.
Another day. No DHL. There's a shocker. It was indeed very wise to choose an inexpensive coin as the test subject.
Amend tiny crate to a small but sturdy box. A tiny crate would be too difficult to open. You mentioned you were frugal; does FedEx cost $80 from...
Whoops, put the reply in the wrong thread...erased.
I collect rare specialty records and I'm used to shipping glass, shellac and aluminum records. I would have used a decent padded mailer, like the...
