Well they had an even COOLER piece, same mint and ruler. It had ole Mithradates in a wolf skin. Very cool, but went for more than I would go as a...

I think TIF has one of these, and I accidentally got a Medusa head coin from a group lot a few months ago so when I saw this coin I thought I...
Here is a piece I bought yesterday, seller's photo. Its an interesting piece in its the very last Central Asian cash coin. Unlike other areas,...
Would acetone remove them? To me looks like something deposited on the coin. Pretty coin btw.
Sorry to hear your bad news sir. I understand the need at times to sell your collection. I always tell people to never invest "investment" money...
