That is the second book, but trust me that is a good price if anyone eevr wishes to research more about Sassanid coins. I have never seen that...
I can try to do it tonight, but with two youngins I always am crunched for time. Heck, I have 30-40 of my own Sassanids in the SDB not properly...
I say it sounds like you knew too much. I have tried to post ads in the Minneapolis one offering to pay fair prices, and appraise collections for...
I bet you always will remember it. :) I still remember my first ancient bronze and silver. I bought them at the same time, a bronze thessaly...
You don't have to be in Asia. Heck, there are some pretty good fakes all over the Asian markets here in MN. They are everywhere. However, modern...
Lol, sometimes I am pretty sure Anoob, (and maybe Bill), are the only ones who really care about the crazy stuff we talk about, and I am pretty...
True. Most ancient collectors have various degrees of fakes in their collection, from fakes made to fool shopkeepers in antiquity, to renaissance...
Btw, its great to talk about coins you like, but "favorite"? Its like picking a favorite child, you love them all. :D
Yeah, I really like early 20th century Italian. I have the 1 and 2 lire that is a recreation of a Roman chariot scene, and a few from the 1920's...
Terrific artifacts Dionysus and Anoob. The only precolumbian I own are the protomoney pieces. I love the culture and history, there is just so...
Like US cents? :) If our politicians sit on their rear and do nothing, (highly likely), just imagine how worthless cents will be in 20 years? By...
Just like all coins, when in circulation areas in between busy details never get touched and dirt can accumulate there, as will the last traces of...
Lol, who can?
I guess the same could be said of scarcity of modern Mexican coins? Its all the same man, whatever your interest and passion is, is what you...
I have a china cabinet my mother bought me. I think I will take some glassware junk out and put them in there. I have other artifacts, (judean...
Interesting coins sir. I collect coins from Uzbekistand quite a bit, but just older.
So I bought some Sogdian artifacts recently. I do not do this often, but these pieces moved me. These were all found in Ustrushana, which is...
I am not sure. They list it as incuse reverse. I am not positive if there was a negative die, or they struck the coin only on one side. I would...
Yeah, I really do need to photograph/film some of my stuff. I have two boxes, (about 75 coins per), of Sogdian and working on the third. Same with...
Lol, I am not a guru of these at all. Bill would be the closest to that. But yes, the reverse is an incuse design, just like some early Greek...
