Don't worry Hobo, I was not aware of these Divi issues either, and was confused by the OP coin. We all learn new things here, that is why we are...
Btw sir, if you post these same pics in World and Ancient coins section I think you may get more responses.
I have seen photos of such things, but like you said Dmitry they are rare. They used to be expensive, but now would be prohibitively expensive...
I would be around 350-355 AD I imagine. Doug Smith of others into these issues can most likely give you an exact date. Same with the Judean, they...
Top one is Constantius II bronze. The reverse is Fel Temp Reparatio, emperor spearing fallen horseman. Really nice shape. Bottom I believe is...
Lol yeah, but it sure would be tempting to go back and get some Gem Red BU chain cents and 1794 silver dollars, then maybe further back and get...
Btw Mat I notice you REALLY like this coin, as its your new avatar. If you don't mind, how much did she run? I am simply curious.
But sir, I bought my junk silver, and my 09sVDB already. I bought them in 1992. ;)
Showing your age man. ;)
Junk silver was sold to dealers for 2.6 times face, and you could buy for 3.2 times face. I know because I used to split the difference with a guy...
Just make sure its money and not turkeys, "Oh my God they're turkeys! They are hitting the ground like bags of wet cement!" Edit: Btw for you...
Well sir you might be a bit biased towards ancients. You are right, I would be hard pressed between this coin and an Eide Mar, or an Octodrachm....
I do the same with stocks. Don't worry if this is a long term position. You study the asset, and if you wish to own it at this price a price drop...
Yeah, asking about the security is about as red a flag as you can ask. You are lucky he replied to you at all. It will depend on the show. A small...
I don't either. Like I said, for decades since the start of collecting in the US this was "THE COIN" and anyone owning one had bragging rights as...
Mine would be from a group of Byzantine scyphates I bought. I bought them for $40 for 45 coins, (many were cruddy but I saw a few decent ones in...
I would doubt it, but its possible. These were the original "1804 dollars" or 1933 double eagles. For most of US coin collecting history these...
Very nice. Its cool to get involved in a subset and see coins like this, that you can discover how unusual it is. I bet you 100 roman coin...
Myself I use non-pvc plastic flips, and store them in either pages or boxes. Boxes for the coins I am more archiving than actively collecting, and...
Really? That is interesting. I used to assign an old 1930's article entitled, "Where are your clients yachts?". It basically dealt with the...
