I still do. I still enjoy coins and learning about them, I just don't enjoy acquiring them as much as I once did. The shipping became too much...
Add FedEx to the gamble. Given that FedEx was the catalyst that made me semi-retire from the hobby (I was already teetering on the edge) and the...
It sure is nice, to have 0 coins currently in transit. I can just enjoy the coins I have (and I collected for 30 years), and that'll make the...
Have you tried acsearch.info?
I'm still struggling to get there to sign for it and end the hostage situation. With that, my retirement can begin. Worse comes to worse, I'll...
Yes, but it's 25 miles away, and parking is a nightmare. I still have dealers whom I'm comfortable mail-ordering from, three main go-to's, and...
The like was more of a show of solidarity, not that I like all the problems you're also facing. I'm sorry to hear that. We're all pretty much in...

I had to adjust my ma-shops preference; I really hated the new stuff email spam. Per ma-shops, I'll make maybe 0-4 buys a year (with the average...
Great pickup, as always! I would assume that Parthian silver and Sasanian silver circulated side-by-side during the early Sasanian period? My...
Thank you. There's probably about a 90% chance that it was part of a group lot.
Very nice piece! So I guess that narrows the search down to the first sale...
I'm not sure why the Severus is hanging around at the bottom of the post. I had to copy and paste the image, because the filename was too long...
First of all, does anyone have a scan of Christie's 7-2-68 and 11-12-68? Or, can you look up to see if this coin was in there as a solo lot? If...
Very neat! Is the concretion in your collection, or is it a stock photo? I like before and after, but I find the before to be more interesting...
