I use safeflips and store them mainly in boxes. I do have albums but albums take up a lot of room, so right now am consolidating from albums to...
I bought this but its not my way I collect coins. Not a bad way to collect Romans if you wish to complete an Emperor set. This is what it looks...
But I seriously doubt this will matter for very much longer, do you? :(
SO I have asked about some things here, and never have pics. So, I have some pics. :) Last week I unexpectedly bought a largish group of LRB....
I am really glad to hear it sir. I view Mr. Butler's arguments as "siren songs" and was somewhat concerned since it appeared you were being lured...
DAng, never heard of an ancient going below melt in the past 300 years.
I agree. This silver coin is about the cheapest high grade silver roman you can ever find. They were saved in high grades in huge numbers, so if...
Man, what a beautiful piece. Just spectacular.
And in my mind a wonderful one. Who cares about money? The thrill, however, of owning a truly rare ancient Roman coin.....what can be cooler than...

I would agree with the 63PL grade as well. The reverse is better, but the obverse is what most pay attention to. I will hedge my bets, though,...
Wasn't the 70 Wheat price event in Israel, or am I wrong? I thought Josephus was writing what was happening in Israel as a result of the...
Go to a large asian market and you see all kinds of similar things. I stopped last year and was actually looking through such a "stash". I found...
If someone wished to simply see how debasement affected pricing, I believe a simplistic study would be to take the metrics of coinage and lay them...
Yeah, I have really started to appreciate old washington's more. IDK if that is because I have been away from them long enough, or my expectations...
Concerning the OP, given the sellers picture taking ability, I cannot tell squat. I don't care much for the TPGer's, (ask anyone), but in the case...
But the break up the monotony. Plus, I like looking at a nice coins struck in high relief, don't you? Put that "boring" wheat cent next to one of...
