Looking at all these billon coins makes me wonder how well the silver enrichment process would work with silver diluted to this degree? And just...
Fantastic 'Salus and snake' coins folks! It's fascinating to see the type evolve over time.
As others have already said, that's an excellent 'consolation' coin! Nothing wrong with it and personally I find it far more interesting than your...
I'm looking forward to seeing any of their aurei you may acquire in the future. ;)
Thanks Mikey! I hadn't realised until recently I was missing the COS VII version of this type. I just assumed I acquired one years ago and never...
I recently acquired a pretty cool Domitian as Caesar denarius. [ATTACH] Domitian as Caesar AR Denarius Rome mint, 80 AD RIC T97 (C), BMC T84,...
Didn't there used to be an ancient coin podcast? I think something like that is far more likely to have legs than a print magazine today.
A very neat Marc Antony fourrée! It would seem that some counterfeiters were just more efficient and skilful than others, which might perhaps...
One of the best looking fourrées I've ever seen. Congrats!
Gorgeous coins everyone. Proof that provincials can go toe to toe with their imperial 'betters'.
The OP coin is amazing no matter how you slice it. It's one of those coins I can show to someone who isn't an ancients collector or understand...
Lovely images, they show just how beautiful Earth really is. Here's a related coin I can add. [ATTACH] Titus as Caesar AR Denarius Rome Mint,...
That's such a great photo to show scale ... and with such beautiful coins too!
Both are really great coins Mikey, particularly the tet. I love that reverse!
Is the target audience of ERIC those who don't like or don't want to invest in RIC? Many of the later RIC volumes are in dire need of updating, if...
Awesome coin Steve! The portrait is what does it for me. Here are my 'hand shakes'. [ATTACH] Vespasian AR Denarius Rome Mint, 73 AD RIC 520...
I agree with the others that it's a fourrée, which just adds to the appeal if you ask me. Very neat.
Not exactly what you're looking for, but a good overall view of what's available and when. Lots of European firms with a few North American ones....
A very scarce type for Titus Caesar which I believe is rarer than the the RIC 'rare' rating indicates. Harry Sneh sold me an example eight years...
Utterly fantastic! It's quite remarkable how close the Antony coin is to the Vespasian copy. I love seeing these older types side by side with the...
