I still remember the story about his proclamation. It was said that shortly after Julian had died they proclaimed Jovian as successor. Julian's...
I agree with Tinpot. In my view, recognizable coins are the safest to liquidate. You can go onto Alibaba today and buy gold plated tungsten bars,...
I don't understand the tone on this thread. Maybe I am missing something. To me, $250 is all of the retail on that piece, (not HSN retail, but...
LOTS and LOTS of similar coins out there sir. This is a very common type, and usually come quite nice. No sense in paying more than you are happy...
The toning is nothing unusual in the OP coin. I picked up one between that one and Bigtee's gorgeous coin for about $200 a year ago or so. Unless...
Grease filled mintmarks aren't an error, its a minor manufacturing irregularity. As such they really shouldn't have any value. A true missing...
Yeah, been going on for a while. I had great luck on Ebay buying group lots or single coins with horrible photos years ago. Now, however, most are...
Two collectors fighting over what people think is a common modern coin? It happens a bunch. Good for the seller, but I bet it only happens very...

Anyone else have problem with flips on these? The one I bought just BARELY fits into a flip. Its a chore to take it out quite honestly. I have...

I would. I like the reverse design, I like the fact it's high relief. A true union with an obverse as pretty as the reverse, and I would be...
Normally I would always guess the $3. They are simply counterfeited a lot more than other gold. However, I have to agree my eye is telling me...
Did they send it by mail? I have had good luck from Europe via FedEx.
To my untrained eye, it sure looks like a double strike, rotated between strikes.
We have to know WHAT ancients you are interested in sir. The field is so huge, there simply is no standard answer to your question. Personally I...
It has always been so. Like others have said, short term downstrokes always have led to higher premiums short term. Long term they will be forced...
So who is the wise prognosticator that can choose that? What would you do, bet on key coins that are already MASSIVELY overpriced versus their...
Here are a statue that shows the style I believe looks art deco:[ATTACH] Maybe to some its not "full art deco", but the coins and art of this...
