US classic coins are egregiously overpriced. Ancient Rome in particular had a fully monetized economy, encompassed most of the Mediterranean, and...
There's some debate on the identity of the facing head. On some it looks like Helios, but on others it's unquestionably a Gorgon. I assume this...
Ain't a looker, but I'd sell quite a bit of my collection to be able to fill that spot! A tremendous acquisition, and I liked your write-up, too!...

Got these two unidentified in a job lot a number of months ago, haven't gotten around to them. They sure are charming though! I believe they are...

Could have sworn I saw something like this at a recent auction, with Constantine's mug on both sides but different legends. Can't seem to find it...
