Before I post "C", there's an A and a B I forgot to post. Both of these poleis were posted by others, but that reminded me I'd had these....
The Chinese Panda coins have always bored me to tears, for some reason. Artistically, they're not terrible designs, but they just bore me.
Love the Edvard Munch comparison! You nailed it! :hilarious: Somebody suggested Gollum, once. I had to stretch a little farther than the rest...
Bumping this back up into the sunlight again, since the topic of these came up in another thread just now. The previous post seems to have...
Will do. I figure, hey, a nice cheap Hungarian denar, why not? Worst case scenario, I end up putting it into one of my own future giveaways....
OK, minimum bid placed. We'll know in 4+ days whether or not I can post a 1556 coin. That's well within the 30-day deadline stated in the rules...
There IS a workaround, if anyone wanted to employ it. ;)
Actually, this one's a @Curtisimo game. I'm just a player here. Hope we're not at the finish line yet. I've got more, but am stuck on the...
Woohoo! Yay AMCC Santas! Well-deserved. I like the Miletos lion. Love those archaic punchmarks! Theirs had a nice design, too. Much more...
It's a good question, but one I'm not really qualified to answer. Sometimes the flan is just not quite flat on a roller-die coin. You know how a...
Ha! See? There came @Ed Snible, while I was typing. Goes to show you how much I know. :oops:
Welcome. I'm not really qualified to judge here, though I'm confident enough to say it's not a cheap tourist fake, at least. If it's fake, it's...
PS- you DO want to join their collector clubs, since the mid- and upper- membership tiers come with credits for grading, and can save you money.
PCGS and NGC are the top two. I'm a PCGS guy, personally, but that's a matter of preference. Do have someone prescreen for you as much as...
If I were to pick one, I'd have to go with that RR elephant. But wow - centaur biga! Ever since @TIF put most of these "unconventional...
I don't see anything that looks out of the ordinary there. I think these ancient flans were cast before they were struck, in any event?
Congratulations! Nice coin. Great portrait. That's enough for me in itself, since I'm not quite qualified to recognize its "white whale" status.
That CircCam Hadrian is my clear favorite. :)
Boy, those big bronzes are handsome. I only own one Byzantine coin, but it's Justinian. :) Like most of my small collection, I've posted it ad...
There she is again, in miniature! Love it. Nice MHB, too.
