There is no manner of court rulings, SEC rulings, or anything that will ever convince those who wish to believe their precious silver is not being...
Mine also happened to be Trajan. That pic was to show the high relief on the sestertius, a very large brass coin. You can see how much higher the...
[ATTACH] Me too. :)
To me that is a sign of advancement. :) A lot of beginning collectors, or those just buying to make a "set", only look at the portraits. The...
I will go against the flow and say Omar Bradley. He was the quintessential soldier's general. He knew the importance of taking care of troops, and...
I agree I like the reverse on the MA. More unusual. Both of the tets I got recently were just a standing figure type, though on one it was Mars...

Attractive proposition, considering this winter. Tonight it will be 1. Yeah, not missing a digit or two, 1 stinking degree. We just got 4 more...
As a book buyer, I do have some qualms. How complete would ERIC III version of Aorta be versus the hardcover? How much more functional would a...
But I get to "play" all I want with my ancient coins sir. ;) Great point about a soft surface though. I dropped a cracked a crystallized denarius...
I handle the heck out of my coins, both modern and ancient. Why would you collect something and not be able to touch it? Btw, none of the...
About the only way to avoid it is to either be a dealer or hold them forever. I never understood people who get mad about losing money on...
