Thanks for such an informative writeup. Sadly my unslabbed large cent days are long over. I've been hoping to get a nice unc one but they've shot...
A friend of mine needs help in ID'ing these bronzes. I don't have weights nor dimensions, tho I could request those. He's a collector in Warsaw,...
That's a good plan. I should bring along my little pocket notebook {a gift from Keunker} and scan interesting tables at first. I mainly collect...
They're both very close but the new one, with the patina, looks a bit better IMO.
Very interesting. My son {age 13} also likes tanks a lot. I think Whitman made Colonel or equivalent at Normandy? Yes, I've heard that during...
Wow a Tiger II tanker! When a kid I built a motorized Panther from a kit but I really wanted a Tiger model. It was too expensive at $12 as I was...
Well I think this is definitely an ancestor of yours, not only being German, but standing here in the top of a Panzer III. The Panzer 3's were...
I have a denarius with Marc Anthony/ Octavian bought ca. 1988 or 89 in New Orleans, LA. I believe this issue is dated to 31 BC. It shows a...
Me at Show: {after waiting 5 or 10" to get my question in} "Excuse me, but I'm looking for a 39 No-drapery Seated Half in 62 or 63. Would you have...
Normally I really dislike most coin dealers and think that like, the Visigoths, the hobby would be better off with far fewer of them. In this...
Very beautiful. Do you have a weight? I also need to find a good digital balance.
Nice coins. I've never owned any of the earlier 2 francs: they're normally quite scarce. I have had quite my share of the 5 francs: from...
Thanks. I've just finally added a page to my website on Talers. Unfortunately, it only features 1 taler (Holy Roman Empire). I do own a 2nd...
I tend to specialize in very late Roman, particularly silquae and tremissisii. Have bought at least 5 of these and bid on a great number more. I...
Which hotel? I should probably try to go and always enjoy talking & drinking even if no coins are to ge found.
Since I do a talk on Ancient History as Shown by Coins at a high school, it's almost a requirement for me to have the 1st and the last "Ancient"...
I've collected 2 aureii so far, one in 2004, the other ca. 2018 or 19. On Panzerman, I believe there is significant medical research that shows...
Errr, maybe not. It's pretty much a gamble with very iffy financials. Of course there's always the feeling that if you bought it at 10 per cent,...
Bronzes can be very difficult as many of them have been fixed or improved in current times. Best to have a specialist examine it.
Actually, one of the 1st Ancients I bought after finishing graduate school in 1988 and I began collecting in earnest. It's a sestertius, the...
