While I agree with this, in my experience if you make contact with local dealers you can do better, but have to wait until something comes in. At...
Pretty much, but it depends on supply/demand. At times I have seen slight premiums. I buy this stuff as a dealer of mine has it, but he can go...
One of those "castle" maravedeis coins from medieval Spain. I have seen the type before. Check out this listing:...
Eh, if its just chemicals it will not reproduce "NT" since most people aren't patient. It will just damage a bunch more coins needlessly. :(
CICF is a good show if you are into world and ancient coins. For all other coins, I would go to Central States instead.
I would be in the unmarked, crummy looking suitcase camp, depending on value. For my better stuff, I might leave it in the SDB until I flew back...
Just another instance in which people think the plastic IS the collectible. The coin is an afterthought. I don't care what people collect, it...
IDK, what would you call a "hoard"? I own maybe $2500 in FV silver, 20 ounces of gold coinage, about 500 "better" US coins, (seated halves, bust...
Interesting coin. I could see why they think its a fourree due to weight and cracking on the surface of the silver. I would grade it a Fine, but...
While I carry it around sometimes, last week I used a Egyptian drachm of Hadrian with a depiction of the lighthouse of Alexandria to tighten the...
Yeah, I was going to suggest Tom Reynolds, but you already have him. Nice man and nice coins. "Nice" prices, yeah, but you can't have it all.
I agree with Topcat. Demand is the real wildcard here, and is something you can never predict. Yes, half cents are undervalued versus other US...
From some personal experience, I think if you dipped that coin the rest of the coin would lighten, but the black marks would remain. Basically a...
Its called "style". Its one of the most difficult things for modern collectors to understand. Ancient coins were not massed produced from a single...
John, I would be worried about the weight. For gold coins, they will eventually bend the pages down if you keep them stored upright. You might...
The sad part is I bet, given enough money, one really could get this label made. I am all for private enterprise making a buck, but most of these...
Nice example of the issue. Since its the first instance of the name Christopher on a coin, and my name is Chris, I collect them. :) The gold is...
This is a tough crowd to trick when it comes to coins OP. ;)
Lol, I love that movie, especially that clip. All kinds of funny scenes in that movie. I remember him sitting down at a table, one guy an ex con....
I would agree very eastern Roman provincial. The language would be greek, and some letters are clearly greek on here. Maybe Singara or similar?
Separate names with a comma.
