Do you think mine is Mint 2?
Ooh, I like this topic! This is one of my interests. I'm more interested in the large double sestertii, of good style, which are getting harder...
And that's where Totalus Rankium and the history comes in. By listening to Heraclius' episode, you'd learn about the fascinating history,...
Good call! I LOVE Sasanian silver, especially the 'skeletal' style of the 7th century. I haven't ordered anything since the tariff mess (really...
I think there was a typo; Constantius I as Caesar (293-305).
Classical Numismatics on youtube also has several videos geared towards beginners; definitely a must-see. Perhaps AlHenry92 could post what the...
