The local coin shop I go to always has a decent selection of Roman coins, so I probably will buy a few more. I love the history of them. Bruce
Thanks dougsmit, I appreciate your input. Roman coinage has always fascinated me, but I've always spent my hobby dollars on American coins and...
[ATTACH] Here's the reverse of the first coin. It didn't load the first time for some reason. By the way, all three coins are about 19mm. Bruce
[ATTACH][ATTACH][ATTACH][ATTACH][ATTACH] These are three Roman coins I've had in my collection for years. I don't collect ancients, but...
Thanks for the tip on the DigiWeigh Chris. I bought the model you have, and like it a lot. I'm weighing everything in sight. Bruce

Nice coin BaldEagle. Looks like a strong AU to me too.
I use a little Koinsolv and a Q-tip and soft toothpick (gently and carefully). The Koinsolv does most of the work, but the "tools" help loosen the...
Chris, This website is part of Rich Hartzog's token "empire", and is very useful. I've referred to it many times, but thanks for the post anyway....
Thanks Chris. I worked on it a little bit today to get the green out of the counterstamp. It looks much better now than it did in this pic. Bruce
