Sure, eventually it may be "different this time". However I have seen many times in my own lifetime that it wasn't different this time, and it was...
In a lot of ways, "rare" for ancients should always be used in context, and understood in context. A Caligula, (as referenced by @johnmilton...
2011-2013 was pretty similar. Like I have said, boring periods of no news will drive down premiums eventually, they always have. I am mainly...
Smart man. Mine does. :( She asked to put her "middle tier" jewelry in it a few years ago and I was stupid enough to agree and give it to her. At...

The Treasury is actually under subpoena to answer this question. They are minting way less than demand dictates, but do not seem to care. However,...
Lol we all have. Seems more quantity available when pm is higher... Oh well, it's mainly a hobby. I mean, the coins are a hobby, the pm is me...
Good point, yet how can you be confident of a future premium upon selling? Last few months I have been on Reddit, (I know), and answered some...
Yes sir, they are very similar since this was when the Arabs were taking over sections of the Byzantine empire and then striking imitation coins...
