Aww, come on. Really? The SL is ugly well worn, but you think its better than SBA's, those ugly late 1800's gold coins, late large cent designs,...
Now play fair. She was more of a seductress when she was younger, but she always had that nose. Actually in antiquity she wasn't known for her...
Yeah, museums are horrible for coins usually. A friend at a coin club volunteered for the state museum, and they had some good pieces, (in storage...
Thanks Gary for the help! I wish I had the discipline to teach myself Chinese, as it is I just flip through Hartill looking for a match if I have...
I just think you listed about my top six ugliest US coins. Thanks, I was wondering what my next 3 would be after Ikes, SBA, and Sacs. Kennedy has...
Don't worry Hobo, I was not aware of these Divi issues either, and was confused by the OP coin. We all learn new things here, that is why we are...
Btw sir, if you post these same pics in World and Ancient coins section I think you may get more responses.
I have seen photos of such things, but like you said Dmitry they are rare. They used to be expensive, but now would be prohibitively expensive...
I would be around 350-355 AD I imagine. Doug Smith of others into these issues can most likely give you an exact date. Same with the Judean, they...
Top one is Constantius II bronze. The reverse is Fel Temp Reparatio, emperor spearing fallen horseman. Really nice shape. Bottom I believe is...

But sir, I bought my junk silver, and my 09sVDB already. I bought them in 1992. ;)
Showing your age man. ;)
Junk silver was sold to dealers for 2.6 times face, and you could buy for 3.2 times face. I know because I used to split the difference with a guy...
Just make sure its money and not turkeys, "Oh my God they're turkeys! They are hitting the ground like bags of wet cement!" Edit: Btw for you...
Well sir you might be a bit biased towards ancients. You are right, I would be hard pressed between this coin and an Eide Mar, or an Octodrachm....
I do the same with stocks. Don't worry if this is a long term position. You study the asset, and if you wish to own it at this price a price drop...
Yeah, asking about the security is about as red a flag as you can ask. You are lucky he replied to you at all. It will depend on the show. A small...
I don't either. Like I said, for decades since the start of collecting in the US this was "THE COIN" and anyone owning one had bragging rights as...
