Who said anything about beaches? I like to hunt for OLD stuff.
I do think they were a little strict here. I wouldn't have quibbled with 55, but I think 53 is a teensy bit low, personally. Not that I really...
How would they know that? What kind of documentation? Most - in fact, nearly all - ancient coins on the market came from buried hoards. That's...
Here are the two Philip I antoninianii I owned about ten years ago. Both cost me less than fifty bucks. As ancient silver goes, they're kind of...
This is a Roman antoninianus of Philip I (244-249 AD), better known as "Philip the Arab". The reverse shown features the goddess Laetitia....

For the record, I voted 58, but the actual PCGS grade is lower.
I saw where you caught yourself on the double entry. Was just about to fuss at you for it but you caught it yourself first. No worries - your May...

Dangit, why is there never a roll of paper towels around when you need 'em? "HAS ANYONE SEEN THE PAPER TOWELS?!?" <No reply> <Faint...
Auction images might have fooled me (probably would have). But seeing your pictures, and that wonky lettering closer up - even if you hadn't...
Good way to do it, with the grid like that. Wish more folks with big lots for us to ID would do this. Unfortunately I don't have the time to go...
LOTS of fakes of these floating around, as you say. Unfortunately I'm unqualified to help you with these. Perhaps @Ken Dorney or @mlov43 or...
There ya go!
