However you like to say it, as long as I understand you I won't correct you. ;)
I have read similar. As late as the mid 1920's I have read you could find BU rolls of 1916 SL on the bourse floor of the ANA conventions. Remember...
Good post and brings up a good point. Almost all the posters here are seasoned CT hands. I know I get tired as much as everyone else of the new...
Good thoughts. My wife is Thai, and I have a very extensive early/medieval Thai collection now. Still hasn't really interested her in coins, but...
I was collecting US coins 24 years ago. Yes, that was a screaming deal for that coin then.
The thing is we are already horribly lucky. The ancient coin market is way thinner than say the US market is. If only 10% of US collectors...
If you are getting into ancients, get ready for a book fest. I think my library sits at around 825 books just on ancient coins at the moment....
I am with both crowds, AU58 and a superlative example. To me, a coin owned by a collector of immense taste, (like many of your coins I see Eduard). :)
I also love a good discussion (argument) as long as it has a point. I agree with the OP some posts are simply trolls being mean to someone else on...
I have read as much sir. I am, as are many of us here who love history, deeply saddened by your country's loss. I truly hope even more items are...
Just an ancient coin from the Roman empire? Wow, that will be an easy one for you. They are very inexpensive for many of them. Btw, the reason we...
I would guess grease filled die, but either way not an error coin.
100% agree. Anyone who knows about this coin or owns any other St Gaudens can tell you it is a fake, no doubt, no discussion really. If someone...
Idk man, the world is a big place, and English spoken by billions of people. As long as we both know what we are talking about, I am not one to...
Just read about the fire and how many untold items have been lost. Reminds me a lot of fires and wanton destruction in "source countries" and...
Of course, but the whole set thing is a lot more nebulous for us. However, I would point out those who you mention are part of the generic roman...
I thought it was a good topic, and cannot understand the hating on the OP to be honest. Why the internet trolling on a valid topic? If people are...
All good points above. The media loves scaring people and never putting things in context. The danger with lead is ingestion, especially in...
Yeah, but the thing about rarity is why does it matter? The 484,000 1909 S VDB cents are only rare in comparison to the tens of millions of people...
I have read of many variations in numbering on Roman coins versus how I was taught the Roman numbering system went. I believe the Romans did not...
Separate names with a comma.
