The 1988 Sear is on Ebay occasionally for $50 or less. For this coin, you would want a specialty book on Roman Egypt. I have both of them, I think...
Umm, no it doesn't "help" since its STILL 217 today, which is WAY above historical averages. Again, thank you. You just proved the opposite of...
Umm, you just posted a chart on a gold to wheat ratio. How the blazes does this PROVE ANYTHING about the USD? Seriously, you just destroyed your...
Just Ebay? It would suck a little for certain collections I have, but for other areas of my collecting I would be unaffected. Plus, I would...
I would agree with you Cloud, (and I agree with Inflexion as well). Problem is, without leverage you will simply have a very illiquid market....
Have you searched out local coin shows in Germany. I would try there at first. If you wanted some addresses to some ancient coin shops in...
The only answer I can give you sir is: Everywhere. I have bought coins well under retail on Ebay, at coin shows, at traditional auctions,...

Like this Doug? http://www.cngcoins.com/Coin.aspx?CoinID=69601 http://www.cngcoins.com/Coin.aspx?CoinID=124312...
I have found similar. What I would REALLY look forward to would be to buy bags if silver went down to $15 or so. I had a great time in the late...
I understand, and I have been there when people bring in huge boxes of Lilttleton stuff to shows to sell and get offered 20 cents on the dollar...
Very true, just like Littleton. This is why I don't like people really trashing them. Both of these places DO have massive costs, and with those...
Oh heck no. Coins are about the most inefficient markets I know of, except for something like gemstones. This is especially true of ancients and...
I don't think its bad for a non-shipwreck coin. That is a nice coin Marbury. :)
Yeah, but in ancients you go from old references to new, from European spelling to US conventions, have alphabets like Sassanid with no vowels so...
Thanks man. I knew I had seen it, just having a brain cramp and didn't have time to search. I like the reverse on the coin, very nice portrait...
Yeah, what Rono said. Collect what is local, expand your horizons. You will have the rest of your life to buy US coins locally, take advantage of...
Lol. I can see why, in the US this emperor is usually spell Doucas. In ancients you have to be flexible with spellings. Not nearly as bad as...
I guess I don't have a problem with what ANACS did. I guess they are assuming they will be able to deliver the coins in time to do normal shipping...
Tough call. Common issue, common emperor, with a break, but still design is intact and its Byzantine gold. $200? I would say without the break...
