Minelab CTX-3030. Man, every other member in our six-person group on my dig week in England was swinging one of those. (One fella had an XP Deus...
It looks more like a hit (circulation mark) to me, but admittedly I do not know for sure. It could be some kind of die anomaly, I suppose. If...
Brilliant! *applause*
... But impressed that it’s your work. Chalk that up as an artistic success, right? (I was, very briefly and abortively, an Art major in my...
I don’t know if you can attach a photo here or not. I just liked the melancholy appearance and somber mood of that painting. Kind of relieved it...
Yay! Homemade meme success! :D
I agree about the Grace Kelly medal!
"o_O", indeed. You need to ask a question if you want to get any answers. Like @paddyman98, I see enough arrows to fight an archery battle with,...
I find the painting in your avatar intriguing, for some reason. Is that you, or your work? What's the story there? The face is somber, yet the...
Aha. @paddyman98 beat me to it, while I was typing. I spelled "vise" correctly, though. ;) (Vice is what the police clean up. A vise is ......

Just off the cuff, without looking at Photograde or anything like that, I'd say that one looks XF to me. Let's say XF40.
Love the Byantine "throwing star", the Bithynian, and oh, that strange syncephalic owl! That's wonderful. (Added a new word to my vocabulary, too.)
This neat little (well, not so little, actually) Numidian bronze doesn't quite make the <$20 threshold, as it cost me $20.30. Numidia: bronze...
For my best ancient of 2020 that cost under 20 bucks, I reckon it would have to be be this one. @happy_collector has it now. I had $18.85 in it,...
Nope. Replica. Fun find from a bag of buttons, though.
WTG! Thanks for taking us along. I watched the whole vid. The Merc is lovely. I never, ever got tired of digging those! Seeing the flash of...
Sweet! If I ever try another date/mint set of anything, I reckon it might be the Mercs. Finding a 1936 Merc dime in my grandmother's silverware...
