Actually I've been looking at/for Classic Head gold. I'd say this coin could be a low-end 63 today but I dislike the amount of minor bangs for a...
I particularly dislike PCGS or NGC CAC coins. I've found CACs to perhaps be problematic. Possibly not all CAC's are this way but I tend to see...
I've been looking for decent mid-range $20 Libs and lately $5 Libs for some time. With the Double Eagles, I've been looking at online auction...
Thanks much, a very interesting history and some really neat coins. Aside from occasionally one of the full wheel ones, I don't recall ever having...
Weren't ALL buffalo nickels found in circulation? Even uncirculated ones. I don't recall any treasury bags of buffalos being saved and then sold...
Me too! For a 7th grade school project my son had to build a model employing shapes for which had to calculate the volumes and surface areas. He...
Really I was born 1804 year earlier! In 218 AD.
I could not find a numismatic auction firm by that name on Google. Also as Europe is 5+ hrs ahead of us the sale is probably over. Too bad as...
Opps, I forgot to look at the date part. Valens was emperor 364 - 378 AD, which is when he was killed in the battle of Hadrianopolis. Come to...
Wow, 20,400 Euro for a follis? Seems like quite an early follis: must've been before they became the nummus? {sorry for the pun}. It seems that...
Excellent! Try to look for a nicer Julian the Philosopher, aka the Apostate. Also a book suggestion which is really good. [ATTACH]
Is "2T" a double-taler? The 1802 Bust $ is also a beauty: no need for an unc with one like that.
Thanks, I'll look for the book. I might be going to the British museum again but in less than 5 months. One can view their collection online but...
Actually it was fun awarding the prizes. One runner-up person didn't claim theirs but otherwise all of the coins have been ordered. I didn't...
"Only 8 Christian ones dated before 1500 " (almost like a US collector saying I have ONLY 14 1804 silver dollars...)
I know next to nothing about Indian coinage but would like to know more. Your coin looks beautiful by the way. What is the size & rarity? Are...
It's from the old addage: Rock, paper scissors. Scissors beats paper but rock beats scissors & paper beats rock
[ATTACH] Paper is fine but as long as you don't hit a rock!!!
You're welcome. I have not bothered to update everyone with the shipping status of their prizes. I should also mention to Panzerman that he...
Hopefully you'll get your money back. While it's not polite to speak ill of the dead, I'd have to say that that Julian II was kind-of beat up...
Separate names with a comma.
