Cool one, @Roman Collector. How does that type compare against a Caligula VESTA Æ in similar grade? (Edit: pricewise, i meant to say.). I...
Actually, I agree with this.
65 seems right to me. I think the PCGS pops in that grade are a five-figure number!
I noticed VCoins was down, too. Thought it was my cheap tablet at first, but tried another device with the same result (or lack thereof). You...
I've had the forum or my hardware freeze up and cause double- and triple-posts. No double threads ... yet. Yes, that was probably a fairly well...

A time machine? ;) Nope. What's done is done, I reckon.

@Aethelred (if you ever cease being a yeti) - this thread combines all of your hot-button topics!
Yes, "stellate" = star-shaped. @Deacon Ray - now what's on your radar, now that you've gotten a "white whale" lashed to your longboat? :) I was...
You won't get any disagreement from me on that.
That's my motto: if you can't dazzle 'em with intellect, pour on the nonsensical silliness. And mention bacon. Gets 'em every time.
No, it is a bizarre yellow and blue color.
