The fakes aren’t silver though so they wouldn’t have that lovely silver ring.
Are you sure a 4.5 gram solidus was a soldiers annual wage? That doesn’t seem like much at all. I apologize for the misunderstanding. I didn’t...
What do you mean I answered my own question? I’m sure a lot of the poorest of the poor did live day to day with no savings. But I’m sure there...
Thanks for the info! I am actually studying Classical History myself but my main focus is on Rome even though Ancient Greece fascinates me just...
I’m talking about as a life savings though: like maybe they put away 1 denarius per month for 20 years. That’s 240 denarii. Or ~10 Aureii. I read...
I was just looking at some old gold coins online like the Persian Daric, Roman Aureus and Byzantine Solidus and I’m wondering if these gold coins...
That's why the Peace & Morgan dollar coins are better xD. They're bigger. I think I'd want 1 bell just for fun and then the rest as actual coins.

I like cash too unless the discount is less than 3% below other forms of payment. The reason it’s 3% is because I get 3% cashback on all...
No! That’s not what I’m saying. I don’t care if I make money or not. I just want to help by having coins graded that people might want for their...
That’s so strange because I remember once my LCS sent in a tube of American Silver Eagles and ALL of them came back MS69 or MS70. My guess is...
The issue is that Evan seems to totally miss the point of why I asked the question. As I’ve said before my intention for getting some of this...
I know you did. I appreciate it. I just wish you could’ve left it at that instead of acting like I’m doing something I shouldn’t be. Im happy to...
Not if my coin dealer charges a fee. Thus not “free advice”. Thank you so much! :)
Why do you bother to post if it’s just going to be something negative? Can you not hold your tongue and resist saying something snarky? I don’t...
I think you’re misunderstanding what I’m asking. I’m not asking for anyone to give me free advice or hold my hand. I’m asking if it’s worth...
