Saturnalia draweth nigh. Anybody else want in on this? There are a few days left. Don't forget the regular December giveaway, too, if you...
Yep! Roller dies! This coin was struck that way, giving it an ever-so-slightly bowed/curved/bent appearance when examined in hand, before it...
When somebody makes an inappropriate language violation, don't quote it. Use the "report" link.
You've got some trustworthy dealers here, in fact. @Aethelred and @ToughCOINS come to mind, among others.
