Modern World coins can go for $16? That's news to me. I've been paying for Gold Shield on them.
Recently purchased from Ken Dorney. Roman Egypt (Alexandria): billon tetradrachm of Hadrian, ca. 117-138 AD; canopic jar of Osiris [IMG] This...
Wow. That first is definitely avatar-worthy, as I see you have done.
Except I'm pretty sure Gold Shield tier is mandatory for World coins, so the base fee is $35+, I think? At any rate, as mentioned, I always...
A TrueView is certainly nice to have when you've got a colorfully toned coin. [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG]
Y'know what? I'm due to renew my PCGS membership. If I renew at Gold level, I get four grading vouchers. And as coincidence would have it, I...
Sorry, you're imagining things. It's a phantom. I concur with the pareidolia diagnosis.
Neat looking coin. No comment on the variety- that's not my thing. Just in general, I think it's a handsome circulated example, for the grade.
As to the ruined ANACS slab, it is possible a product like Goo-Gone would remove the adhesive residue without further clouding the plastic.
The problem there is finding someone who is also doing a crossover order. I need to do a PCGS World coin submission before too long, but I will...
I’m totally cool with the crackout and think it was appropriate here. Besides, it’s your coin now. :) BTW, if I find the Künker am Dom flip,...
@FitzNigel owns it now, and has liberated it from the plastic, which I probably would have done myself, if I wasn’t such a “slave to the slab” in...
Funny, you don’t look like a duck - er, dvck - at all.
Brilliant! I love it. I quite like the unaltered source picture to begin with. Needs more coins in the tree, however.
I don't think any collector has ever escaped the occasional buyer's remorse. It usually happens quite early on in one's collecting career.
Wow. Say that one out loud, three times, fast! ;) No- on second thought- don't. It would probably summon his vengeful mummy. :nailbiting:
Neat, @Shea19. I like your Max Thrax avatar coin, too. I only have eight Roman coins (four of them denarii) in my collection, but it so happens...
HB2U, you immortal old crooner, you.
There are only four denarii out of eight Roman coins in my present collection, so it is quite easy for me to choose my favorite: [IMG] And the...
Wow, that's cool!
