I would love to see you there, but since I have to catch a bus for CICF I can't make it. Btw, social hour starts around 7 if you want to show up...
First, the larger is not a fake of a Tet. Second, style is the best way to tell. Many things are wrong in the design, the style, the flan, etc....
I just saw him handle ancients or a couple circulated dollars. Our ancient coins aren't little sissy coins like modern coins are. We don't...
Yes he does. Curtis Clay who works there is one of the most knowledgable, helpful men you could ever find in ancient coin collecting. There...

So where did all of these batches come from? There is no way they are shipwrecked coins, since there is dirt deposited on them deliberately to...
Well finally freed up time and I will be there Friday. Anyone feel free to PM me and we can exchange phone numbers. I was thinking of a CT coffee...
