I think you mean the denarius after Gordian III was issued in small quantities until 296 AD. I recall going to the British Museum last year and...
In addition the Romans & their Provinces (known as Greek Imperials) also made large bronze medallions. True Roman medallions are expensive but the...
Actually James Fox was in Houston, TX the same time that I was. I may have seen this coin at the time he bought it. I recall his price paid & the...
Very interesting. I recall that one of these regional museums was robbed of it's coin collection a few years ago: I think they may have rebuilt...
Maybe a compromise? [ATTACH]
I'd like that photo too! I can imagine Priscus Attalus made a medallion commemorating the sacking of Rome in 410 AD?
Merely out of curiosity what is the approximate price range for these aachens? I guess they appear in mostly European auctions.

While I'm not a strong US buyer, for many years all of the US gold and even foreign gold, I've looked at, has been slabbed. Except for my...
Actually I've been looking at/for Classic Head gold. I'd say this coin could be a low-end 63 today but I dislike the amount of minor bangs for a...
I particularly dislike PCGS or NGC CAC coins. I've found CACs to perhaps be problematic. Possibly not all CAC's are this way but I tend to see...
I've been looking for decent mid-range $20 Libs and lately $5 Libs for some time. With the Double Eagles, I've been looking at online auction...
Thanks much, a very interesting history and some really neat coins. Aside from occasionally one of the full wheel ones, I don't recall ever having...
