Thank you Collect89,davidh, illini420 and rlm for your opinions on this coin. I thought it would be easier to grade this type of coin, but my...

To go along with the Denarius, here is my sestertius showing Trajans Column - RIC 579. It is not as well detailed as the denarius, but it does...

The AETERNITAS type exists for Faustina as Sestertius, As or Dupondius, according to my catalogue. This type seems to have been struck after 146...
I think you are right - that is a Muttonhead, Miller 1.2. Very few Mailed busts facing right were minted. The majority are facing left. The...

Here is an 1823 over 2 variety, and an 1831. The 1831 has unfortunately been cleaned, and has minor scratches, now retoning naturally. If anybody...
Here are 2 1822's purchased many years ago. Interesting comment by Cappedbustdimes regarding the existence of hoards of this date. I wonder...
