Here is a Constantine with a retrograde reverse. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
You are correct. I am doing the photos and putting it in the album. Some of them end up with fine scratches. But, it was unrecognizable when I got...
Thanks. I had originally tried to get all of the coins to perfection. It can't be done. So, I have decided that if I can get them to...
I don't think I do. But, I will search through my pics. I have had this one for a year or so. Been working it a little at a time.
Here is another ancient that I have finished. It was very rough and parts missing. I have brought it as far as I dare. It is a Constantius II Fel...
Are the coins included? The way it is worded, I would think it was for the holder only.
I use flips for some of my 'Work In Process' ancients. It is easy to see both sides, easy to get in and out and I can put a note with them. I...

Thanks for the feedback and support. Given the 'restoration' comment, would it be advisable to use REN Wax before final storage?
When it comes to ancients I found it difficult to develop a theme. So, I decided to just get uncleaned, clean them, identify them and catalog...
I have been working on an uncleaned batch. Some interim results are below: Still have some work to do. Licinius I Before [ATTACH] After [ATTACH]...
Inclement weather and quarantines usually bring opportunities to enhance our knowledge.
Welcome to CT I got bored myself with the US Mint putting out so many coins and options. It was getting to be like ballast. I quit buying...
