Like...? Be it ever so quirky (and NGC's version even moreso), I can't think of any other one-stop location with such wide priceguide coverage as...
Good point. "Don't mess with the emperor. He is putting things in order".
Another really handsome one, @zumbly! Nice color, centering, etc. I quite like it.
Lizzie just went VF35 at PCGS, though the TrueView images are not yet showing on the cert page as of this post. Exactly as expected. A...
Frog. Yep, sorry. Modern coin. Continue as you were, with any ancient amphibian. Too tall an order for me! [IMG]

No, you're right, Vespasian did do "grumpy" quite well. But not always. :) He's almost smiling here. Sort of a "Mona Lisa smile", I guess. [IMG]

They look OK to me, though I should warn you that I am not at all an expert, and ancient Chinese coins are often faked. These, however, I don't...
Wow, that LIBERTAS sestertius puts the one I posted to shame!
I like the grey tone on that one, @Orfew.
That was what I was told for the "News and Notes" section. 400 to 600 words. I suspect you're right about the invitation thing. I am an...
Especially when they're a few centuries old! It would be one thing if you collected moderns that were readily available in MS. But circulation...
