The thread reminded me of an interesting small Setertius I have; a reduced Sestertius of Gallienus. [ATTACH] 81642. Orichalcum sestertius, RIC...
There were 100 coins originally in the bag. A certain dealer would have deals on cheap (c. $1.50) bulk coins during the late 90s; As-sized...
Valentinian II could very well be in my decrepit uncleaned AE3's, but since they came out like messy floor sweepings, that doesn't really count....
I'd love to collect Bactrian Tetradrachms. About the only affordable one I've come across of the Attic standard was this: [ATTACH] The porosity...

Very nice coins, TIF. The only ones I have of that lot is a decrepit version of the Domitian. How do you achieve the snazzy reflective black...
Edit: Hmm, my reply keeps getting trapped in the quote, no matter how many times I lop off the last /QUOTE.
I was lucky with the Heraclius in my concurrent thread. It came from a mostly slab dealer. The Rocus certainly looks better outside of the slab....
:wideyed::wideyed::wideyed::wideyed::wideyed::wideyed:. One could get gold for less than that.
Freedom!
Cool; I especially like the middle one.
Nice! A worthy addition to your collection.

Are S805's out there in similar condition? Or is that a fughettabout it one?:wacky::wideyed::D I rather enjoy the S805's. Does Allen Berman...
