One of my more recent Imperial denarii was one of Claudius II (268-270 AD). This one isn't silver but purely bronze. I got it as I wanted to...
What I call nice and what a coin dealer would call nice have traditionally proven to be quite different. I really don't like the bother of...
Very nice. I was actually seeking to make a 2 oz silver commemorative coin but am not an engraver, nor do I have the time to become one. Would...
I think this is also an As.
Thanks very much Curtis! I will correct my attribution. This also reconciles with what I paid for it. I recall $950 was my winning bid. It...
Hey my portrait Aes of Julius Caesar is ex-NFA. Only I don't have the auction date or number. I do have the old NFA tag, it's lot 1085, ca....
Well I still can't afford even the 1795 half-dollar let alone a Draped Bust/ Small Eagle. A friend of mine came up with an interesting way of...

Yes, I had forgotten Ed VI. Thats a very nice specimen although I'm not familiar enough with the population of Edward VI shillings to know...

The Zepplin 5 marks is in really nice condition. I hate to give a grade from just a pix but it could be around 65. A key item are the lines on...
Very interesting and possibly a unique find. The book photo isn't too useful as was customary for those times.
Very nice 1861 2&1/2D. Plus it's a No Motto variety!* I only have one of these a quite worn 1846 P or O $10 Lib. I have attempted to buy...
I gather you don't want your grandfather to give you gifts?
Well if it had been me I would've just looked for a Mexican Revolutionary Parral Peso of Poncho Villa and forgotten the girls... Back on the .720...
