Sounds like a new car! :)
Oh, I understand. I am aware of some having crazy prices like $475, but then that might be scratched out and $330 written on it. I am assuming the...
What good would it do though sir? Even if they reported it, it would not be right. What about those who crack out the coin at home and send it in...
American coin collectors are probably the biggest homers on earth. We have a much higher percentage of those who only collect home coin country...
My opinion only: High end constantly moving up. Highend today means $10,000 coins, and coins with extraordinary public appeal in VF condition...
I have no idea what you would use for a price. Retail? Auction? If so, which? I regularly buy coins sold in the 1990's for far less than what is...
To be fair, its not as bad as you are saying. The NY state sales tax is not uniform, in fact maybe half of all states exempt coins from sales tax....
I know they got a salt allowance, salarium, from which our word salary comes from.
It would be helpful if there is any literature around the topic sir. Even if they were paid in an actual aureus, I remember back to my time in the...
I agree that during the 3rd century it was all about debasement for emperor's gain. However, Diocletian tried to reform, but at that point the...
I was trying to say that Aureus would be the total pay, not necessarily the coinage given to the troops. Just like if you get paid $1000 a week,...

I view that the Romans wanted to have a silver coin, but they simply ran out of silver. The Silk Road moved northerly in the 3rd century due to...
You are assuming there would be low demand like fanams. It would all depend on production, since the demand would be high. It is not the metal...
OP, I say every answer here is "right". Its right because that is how they wish to collect. That is the key, what you want. The true beauty of...
Cool. I was a member there many years, in fact was in charge of getting stuff like this for the club. Cool to see that they got these.
I always thought it fascinating how the West usually used one hole for jewelry, while India and the East used two. Two holes makes more sense,...
I agree with other's comments. Junk silver dollars, either badly gashed or cleaned. Just being honest with you OP. Buy a grading book or look at...
Tedious? You assert something clearly in error, yet I am tedious for refusing to buy it. Kazakhstan has tons of land and pretty isolated, how...
Of course it is. The problem is the politicians never give up a tax once in place. Most of the world, when imposing consumption taxes, either...
Separate names with a comma.
