I don't think we do know. There's an argument that the denarius didn't even circulate in Judaea. But there are at least six different general...
I would think it falls within the so-called "Tribute Penny" category, and I think it's a wonderful coin on both sides. What in particular is...
I think it's a beautiful coin; you can see what her portrait looks like very well despite the wear. I like Fides on the reverse, too. Great...
@zumbly, I haven't retrieved or read the article yet, but I did say that "I would feel that the theory was more persuasive if someone showed me an...
Beautiful!
Yes, his opinions are really over the top, aren't they? Even for the 1960s, I think. Maybe it sounds better in Italian! It's a good thing the...
Thanks, David. As I said, I hesitated only briefly when I saw it. After all, the reverse is hardly the main attraction of the coin, the price was...

That's wonderful, @Ryro. I don't know if you're familiar with the specifics of the medal. It's one of my favorites, my only example in silver from...
By the way, without the pictures to refer to, those descriptions are pretty abstruse. It would have helped if they'd used the words "low" and...

Thank you! So 397 is, in fact, the one with her hair tied in a low ponytail, sort of like her portrait in the coin you just posted? A very nice...
I didn't realize that you're in Sweden. So France is a good deal closer to you than it is to me. Still, I've had coins shipped to me by cbg by...
Here's my example of the C. Poblicius Roma/Hercules & Nemean lion. [ATTACH] And some coins of Septimius Severus, in no particular order....
