They are all good to me. I actually find provincials generally more interesting than imperial issues. I really like Roman Egypt, but everyone...
I may one of the last you will be able to wriggle one away from unfortunately. @Mat did it once, and @Kentucky, but it does not happen often. I...
Thanks @TIF ! Yeah, not idea why they posted that way. They looked correct in MS Paint. Yeah, um, that is my level of photo editing, MS Paint. :(...
Here are a few photographs of a couple of them. I know, my photography skills suck. :( [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I just got a group lot of early Roman copper imperials. For some reason these large chunks of copper, (bronze and brass), just make me feel good....
Very nice coins all. Nothing in coins is as difficult as to photograph a shiny coin with toning. Even large auction firms have difficulty. I won a...
Lol, though if she showed up looking like she does on the reverse I don't think you would be laughing. ;)
After my last little incident maybe my opinion of genuineness is not terribly important, but right off the top coins 2, 4, and 5 all having mushy...
I think your group is indicative of an advanced collecting bent Doug. Anyone can write a check or follow a list of emperors. I think its advanced...
Totally agree. A million dollar coin has tremendous DEMAND versus supply, but has nothing to do with absolute rarity. I have literally dozens of...

Very nice artistry, especially the reverse. This is how most look, (but yours is fantastic). I would have been happy with it, but when given a...
All rarity scales are based on estimated survivors today. Also, rarity scales are really only applicable to themselves, ie what would be...
So I have wanted one of these for quite a while. With my other purchase bombing out, I figured I would splurge on this one. I like it because it...
I agree. It looks most like a "heat job" where high heat forces too fast of a reaction. COULD it have been gassed? Yeah. Its hard to say it...
There is a great deal written in Gibbon concerning our own country and its current path, but will lead other readers to make their own...
I would say this coin MAY be worth asking price to PCGS. It has to be horribly embarrassing for them to have this travesty of bad AT in their...
That won't stop the fact the got mutilated to begin with. Like it or not, coins are personal property. If I want to go mutilate a roll of BU...
I have a friend from Kutaisi Georgia, (in ancient times Colchis, where the golden fleece was found). However, that is more eastern Black Sea so I...
