Is there some simple way that the buyer of such a replica could stamp a "C" onto it?
OK, now I understand what you meant. That one will be in Severus Alexander's next auction.
Are you asking me if I want to sell the Julian II coin? If you are, the answer is no: I just bought it and don't even have it yet! I'm a...
You're extremely kind, @+VGO.DVCKS, and I appreciate the compliment -- because I sometimes worry that I post too much -- even though I'm a little...
He's the only dealer I know of who sends out ancient coins "on approval" without waiting for payment (at least to customers who've bought from him...
Sorry you didn't win on any. I was very tempted to bid on Lot 214 (the provincial Domitia from Philadelphia with grapes on the reverse), just to...
My only two siliquae, one of Julian II and the other of Valens. (I was very tempted to bid on the Gratian siliqua in the Frank Robinson auction...
I'm sure the distinction can be rather arbitrary for some dealers. In Frank Robinson's case, he apparently keeps his inventory and personal...
The Nero had an "R" after the number, so I guess it must come from Frank's collection. The only problem I have with his photos is that they must...
The results of the most recent Frank Robinson auction went online this morning. I won three lots. Here are Frank's photos of them; I haven't yet...

@Insider, this question was posed two years ago, and the person who asked it hasn't been here since then, so it's unlikely that he or she will see...
Hey, what did Geta ever do but get himself killed by his big brother?
One more Alexandrian coin arrived today: Hadrian, Billon Tetradrachm, Year 19 (134/135 AD), Alexandria, Egypt Mint. Obv. Laureate bust left,...
I just read through that thread. Very entertaining! Although I find it rather sad that there seem to be quite a few people who were regular...
Do you have any idea how many there are altogether?
How many do you have of Faustina II?
Thanks. But I like my 140 Roman Imperial and Provincial coins too! (Especially pre-260 AD or so.) They're just not quite as special and...
They look pretty good to me! Especially because one can see both sides.
Wow, 704! I think I've read that there are about 1,300 different Republican coins, not counting different control numbers and symbols. If true,...
Separate names with a comma.
