Like the OP and @Herberto , I have a year 8 too: [ATTACH] 34-32 mm. 13.30 grams. Maurice, struck year 8 = 589/590 Note the horseman riding...
I'd change the question to "Is it possible to get all five common FEL TEMP REPARATIO series types ..." because there are two other less common...
In my opinion the best and most useful book in the Wayne Sayles series is volume VI, "Ancient Coins Collecting VI: Non-Classical Cultures." It is...
I have liked fourrees for a long time. My site about imitations was first posted in 2002 and occasionally improved since then:...
@Okidoki , you are assembling a wonderful group of provincials!
Here is an update on the OP. Just now I logged into PayPal and sent today's payment again and got an instant acknowledgement. Maybe I did...
@Roman Collector has one with a better reverse legend than usual. Doug's piece and mine are more typical: [ATTACH] I was pleased to get this...
I think @EWC3 (Rob) and @Severus Alexander are right and the Frome hoard-publication suggestion is unlikely. I have "The Frome Hoard" pamphlet...
Has anyone else noticed this? Twice in the last three days I have gone to PayPal, paid with "send money" and not gotten an e-mail notification...
It doesn't look like Constantine to me. The "International Numismatic Bureau" is not a reputable organization. You can google them. Their slabs...
I agree entirely with your thoughts. I think your idea of a "Where Frome" thread is good. If we discuss the burial of hoards in this thread, many...
Among 1415 argentei total the Sisak hoard had 56 of that variety for Galerius, but only 4 were pictured. I looked and yours is not one of those...
That's a very nice 3-cent piece at a very good price (unusually low?). The history of the idea of a three-cent denomination is surely interesting....
I second the thought that they are both very good coins at very good prices. Once again we see how much history and interest can be crammed into...
Al, is that your coin?
Agreed. But, for Quintillus that is difficult to find. When I saw this one at an NFA auction in 1980 I knew it was special for that reason. I paid...
The Wikipedia article on the hoard: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trier_Gold_Hoard says, "An amateur archaeologist, Erich Eixner went back to the...
@TIF 's magnificent "snake on horseback" coin, which many of us would love to own, gives us a chance to pause and consider how much a really...
I don't think so. If someone posts a coin that is for sale, that person takes the risk of increasing the interest in it, but does not have a claim...
Thank you! Some scholars think they abbreviated that into a monogram on coins. Interesting.
Separate names with a comma.
