I have most references, but it doesn't mean I know where to start not reading Greek, collecting the series, or knowing the portraits. ;) I do...
Lol, I am not Mat, I have no idea about Roman ladies. This was just part of a group lot I bought from a local dealer. 9 Egypt tets, 2 sestertii,...
Thanks. The clincher to me is there is clearly an AIACE in the legend to the left of her head, and clearly LI date.
Thanks guys. So a year 10 3209, as in hand you can tell its a LI date. Btw, hate to press my luck, but anyone ever here of a bust left Hera...
Just having no luck identifying this empress. Its Homonoia on the reverse I believe. Her hair looks like Orbiana, but its not her. The Greek has...

Lol, you are right about the face whizb4ng. Its a silver follis that the silvering is still attractive, and its a campgate which is fairly...
If the reaction is allowed to continue, it will eventually eat away your coin until only black silver oxide is left. Stored in proper conditions...
Good point about the as is/where is aspect. Listen, when I say an auctioneer or seller has an absolute responsibility to accept returns, I am ONLY...
Well, the toning people have vilified people who dip coins for so long its probably harder to find one today. I would start with a good local...
To solve further issues, I would like to talk about where you store them. You say AC is running most of the time, that means sometimes there is...
Good point.
A counterfeit coin sold not being described as a counterfeit is fraud. You have an absolute right to demand a refund from the seller. If the...
Gee, almost unknown seller has three 1914d's that are die matches, but are in various levels of wear. What is your opinion Alex?
