Now we come to... ROUND 2. The prize is a second Roman bronze antoninianus of the emperor Aurelian. This one was struck between 270 and 275 AD....
That's cool. I would have been a little surprised PCGS graded it, until I noticed the X-number, and remembered it's in the Krause Unusual World...
Can't say I've seen many toner MTTs. I like the prooflike ones with contrast. They're really cool coins. One of the more appealing...
Thanks- I'm flattered. :) That's a great error coin. I opted to have a similar (D/S & O/C) type error in my collection, albeit a lot older and...
75-cent profit! Cool! And that right there was probably the biggest nail in the coffin of the Susan B. Anthony dollar. You'd think the Mint...

Good point. Having the full name on the flan is right up there with having a nice portrait.
I agree. There's no contest between the two, in my opinion. That one has nicer surfaces and a lower pricetag and, to me, better eye appeal than...
Sounds even more fun than FUN, as I'm a confirmed World coins guy. <and I at least partially agree with your comment about US coin dealers> But...
W = wonderful! Making pocket change fun again.

I'm gonna take a little break before we put out Round 2, but I'll be back!
Time for the drawing for Round 1. Our lucky number was... 17! [ATTACH] And Post #17 was by... @SensibleSal66 ! Congrats, Sal! I'll need a...
