Yes, it must be a die clash. Interesting!
I am not remotely qualified to answer your question, but here are your images in full size instead of thumbnailed. [IMG] [IMG] I love your...
That distinction escaped my grasp at first, but I think I see what you mean now. Perhaps I should stick to just posting joke photos and polls...
Yes, @AncientJoe has one. And a Colosseum sestertius, among other incredible things. His purplish-toned Vespasian aureus from the Boscoreale...
I browsed some coin listings on Etsy the other night and was surprised to see the number and quality increasing. Granted, there was plenty of...

Oh - hey - what about electrum? I just got my first, not long ago: Ancient Greece (Ionia, Phokaia): electrum hekte, Athena and quadripartite...
@alurid- I'm pretty sure there's no "r"- it's "Bakelite". Cool token, though- and the 4¢ seems an unusual denomination. @klippenberger- I love...
