If they are getting that. Right now I see three dealers offering ASE's under $25 each. Seems to me premiums have settled down. Anyone paying $5...
I agree with Bing and Bill. There were 4 types I believe of types celebrating the founding of Constantinople. I bet you Doug Smith has a webpage...
Sounds like you just got outbid to me as well. Some people manually snipe, waiting on the auction and placing a last second bid. Its sound bidding...
I agree with Blaubart. Usually its a pass/fail. I am not a chemist/sound engineer, but I believe the ring test is testing the fact silver will...
Lol. I still laugh when I remember the "protective covers" they sell to keep your slabs in. Nothing like making sure your plastic retains MS 65. I...
Of course, because I read it on the internet, and anything on the internet........

Ptolemaic style coins can be tricky. Most people make the assumption you did in attributing by style. Always remember Ptolemaic Egypt invaded the...
