It looks good to me, but I'm no expert. This is a fairly common late Republican issue that I think very attractive - unfortunately they are hard...
Interesting post. I think this is a Republican die clash - my avatar, Censorinus with Marsyas: [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Yes! Good eye, Finn235! Better than mine - and I was directly handling it. I'd never owned a George V rupee and never figured it'd be faked...
Great thread, Numisnewbiest - I admire your candor. Mostly I look for poorly-described and photographed coins on eBay and I get burnt from time...
A beautiful coin, David. I like that clean look without all of Domitian's usual legends. In contrast, here's a Domitian Minerva fourrée that...
Interesting post - I did not know about Faustina I's lifetime legend variations - thanks for pointing this out, Roman Collector. I have but one...
Wow - what a thread! For the modest budget, how's about three wretched TI•C•A countermarks for Claudius? They are, I suspect, the countermark...
Thank you all for your comments and shared coins - these Roman-Egyptian tetradrachms are really starting to appeal to me and it is good to see...
Taking another eBay gamble, I won five coins for $10.00. Described as "Lot of Five Roman Coins" and somewhat darkly photographed, it was a...
I really like this type - nice examples everyone. My only example is this humble copper antoninianus from Tetricus II. When researching it, I...
Interesting coin and great examples. I have a somewhat crusty, dusty Isis example - it came from an eBay auction for $1.36: [ATTACH] Seleucid...
Well, I really like Coin Talk, and I spend an awful lot of time looking at coins on line and on eBay...but not on a phone. Something about them...
Isn't that one of those mounts you can open with a tiny screwdriver? I've had several like that - you can take the coin out, then if you want,...
Just got another Serapis in the mail yesterday. His head anyway. This one caused me some confusion - I got it from eBay but it came in a...
Nice coins. I have a couple Serapis examples, pretty ugly ones: [ATTACH] Egypt Potin Tetradrachm Julia Mamaea Year 11 (231/232 A.D.)...
I will admit that Roman Republican denarii are problematical on eBay. I've bought a lot of genuine low-end examples, but I have been burned a few...
Ohhh, I really, really like that Trajan/Ant. Pius countermark, Orange Julius. Very nice indeed. I have one other Antoninus Pius countermark,...
This was a lot of fun for me. A batch of harshly over-cleaned Roman Provincials (and some others) from eBay, 14 coins for $19.99 ($1.43 each, not...
Very well-put, Sulla 80. I think this pretty much agrees with my eBay experiences. Yes, there are a bunch of fake Tribute Pennies and...
I'm guessing the second one is a denarius of Antoninus Pius - RIC 201 or 217 maybe? Pietas holding a hind (dead deer?) and basket (tray, it looks...
