Great coin! I was actually looking up the specific question you ask about -- when did Hendin discuss the "walls of Jerusalem" hypothesis. I...
Well done figuring out the answer! Roman Provincial Coinage [RPC] had dramatically thinned out by this time (there were more Imperial mints &...
Both. It's a Roman Provincial, but I don't recognize the obverse inscription, and the reverse photo is too blurry for me to read. The reverse is...
Yes, definitely get the 6th if you only get one. It's new, so I haven't seen many used copies of the 6th edition yet. Anything substantially below...
I've got a number of Lyre / Kithara coins... (I do recall there are other instruments on ancient coins -- but not which ones. All that comes to...
That is a great coin, @cmezner ! Apologies for the digression, but the Alexandria Griffins are a special series. The wheel indicates it's not just...
Here's a Philip II AR Antoninianus from my "captives" collection (ex Adrian Lang Collection): [ATTACH] Philip II AR Antoninianus (23mm, 3.80g,...
Nice Dupondius! Here's my favorite Imperial coin of Faustina Jr. I bought this one because the portrait struck me as exceptionally beautiful &...
Now that I've had some to photograph the rest of the batch, here's the full group of 13. I'm especially happy with the Cyzicus Fallen Horseman, a...
That is an interesting little Chalkous (or Dichalkon, etc.)! It could be something obvious that didn't occur to either of us, but I also wouldn't...
Not in the best condition, but this interesting rarity came today in a CNG mystery lot (13 coins ex C.J. Sabine Collection). They had it...
I've posted my two presentable Senates once before -- but not in the Follow-the-Coin-Game, so I'll consider them fresh enough to appear here....
Here's a relatively rare new addition to my "Captives" collection. Elagabalus AE26 from Moesia Inferior, Nikopolis ad Istrum. One captive can be...
Not Celtic, I don't think. It's actually from Kings of Thrace, Adaois. Mid 3rd century BCE. (You can barely make out ΑΔΑΙ on the reverse above...
Surprised no one has mentioned Frascatius (Tom Mann, twin cities area eBay collector-seller). Maybe like me, who hesitated to avoid the extra...
I love this period of coinage -- in large part because it's the golden age of the control symbol. Great examples so far! I love the way the Papius...
I love @Cucumbor 's two set photos, really beautiful to see them laid out like that! Interesting that this post about "sets" has been revived...
It seems like there are occasional "Limes Denarii" as early as Trajan: https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?term="limes+denarius"+trajan (Most...
Indeed. For this one, I can't believe how many are out there. I've seen photos of dozens, so there must be hundreds, maybe thousands. They provide...
Well... I don't have this type, but I've got one with the same obverse (Mars with a flowery helmet looking left). It's actually from the...
