Here's one of my Valentinian I's dragging bound (barbarian?) captive: [ATTACH] Roman Imperial. Valentinian I AE3 (19mm, 3.03g, 12h), Siscia,...
Some of those feedbacks are REALLY mad at him! One buyer got so angry that his French accent became audible in the text: "YOU ARE JUSTE A...
That sounds like an exciting lot! I have certain groups lots that, despite costing only $10 or 15 per coin, are still sources of great...
For #4, I can see the Achaemenid "King Running" but I also immediately wondered if it might be an illusion (especially if there's pitting that...
I started with the Ainos, haven't checked the others. ACSearch is usually my first stop. I think these three are of the same type. None give a...

That's the "before" photo
Nice Vespasian portraits! Love that tiny captive on @Bing 's reverse. Here's my seated Vesta [IMG] Roman Imperial Coinage. Vespasian (Emperor,...

Good coin, @Noah Worke ! There were a bunch with those little paper tags affixed. I don't have any of those ones yet, but might've had it on my...
Both much better than this old example (no idea where I got it, possibly an LCS junk box, maybe 20 years ago?). The typical Δ - Ε above the...
These aren't secret methods. Using sodium carbonates to treat so-called "bronze disease" has been common knowledge for generations. If you're...
Great coin, very interesting reverse! Not just a reference to Constantine's Tetrarchic pedigree (I'm assuming), but an homage to a very old image...
All right, good to see the game back on! I've already posted two of my favorite AEs in this thread (#13825 & #11954).... But not this one! My...
