Nice portrait and interesting hairstyle. My only Faustina II to date was this rather well-worn denarius. 'Twas what I refer to as a "cheerful...
I'm going to allow this entry post I received on the CollectiveCoin site where the images are hosted, even though it was not made here and does...
If @Paddy54 think's it's OK, that's good enough for me. He and I were having a conversation about Bust coinage just yesterday, as a matter of fact.
That one appears to be a minor lamination error. Planchet flaw, in other words. @paddyman98 or one of the other error-savvy folks can tell you a...
PS- I thought gallows at first, too. Those are worth some $$$. But then I realized it must be some kind of machinery, and altered my search...
Here you go. Yours is a pretty rough example, and thus not worth very much monetarily, but a cool ca. 1811-1812 British token type, nonetheless.
It looks OK to me, at a glance, but the pix are kind of small. If it's a counterfeit, it is a fairly sophisticated one.
Sometimes trolls will just be trolls, or even non-trolls can come off that way sometimes. I myself have been called a troll at least once in my...
And I immediately thought of this other '80s song (or, more specifically, the band). [MEDIA] It would have taken me approximately 208 years and...
Yep! Hey, you could have the cops run that fingerprint through AFIS and identify the mint employee who handled that Ike! It was probably Boris...
Alas, in my current financial state, it'll take more than that. I'm saving up so I can afford a damaged VF 1978 Memorial cent. ;)
Greece (Macedonian Kingdom): silver tetradrachm of Alexander III ("the Great"), posthumous issue, ca. 205-200 BC [IMG] Next, any posthumous or...
Awwww... Ladymarcovan is gonna MELT when I show her those pictures!
@paddyman98- please don't feed the trolls. I'm afraid that's all your response will do. Doug & co. will correct me if I'm wrong, but currently...
Side note- I wonder if I printed this out, and some of our private conversation, if PCGS would put his name as a pedigree on the slab label?...
You got a @Peter T Davis response! A personal reply from the Great Oz himself! Now that's something.
Yay, thank you for this writeup, and the pictures. I will borrow some of them, and link to this, when I do my own writeup for that Leroy Zachman...
@Jamee Növötney - interesting "guitar pick" coins. Had never seen those before. I love that piece with the owl! Cindy Calhoun of Cindy's Cents...
I agree, that one has plenty of charm and a really great portrait. I like the brassy undertones.
I will say the pattern of the gouges has a kind of Salvador Dali-esque surrealism to it, though. It's so nasty it's almost ... art. ;)
