Man, that is some nice patina.
I must have missed this thread the first time around. The Lysimachus is the pick of the litter, as far as I'm concerned (and rightly...
@Deacon Ray - I thought you also made some packaging like that for some sets you gave away? Well, we owe APMEX a debt of gratitude for indirectly...
@Sallent- are Gordian the First and Second also considered roaches? If so, I'll be leaving open-faced peanut butter sandwiches everywhere...
I literally LOL-ed so loud at that "Funky Towel" roach song that it startled ladymarcovan in the kitchen. :hilarious:
I've collected British coins off and on for a quarter of a century and have dug both farthing and halfpenny coins of George II while detecting....
Their "The Vikings" set doesn't even include a Viking coin! Not that it could, for that kind of money. Weird how it has a Roman rather than...
Nooo!!! Nothing against APMEX generally, or fancy packaging, but steer clear of preassembled, fancyfied sets like that. They're marketed to the...
Oh, snap! Now I want one! @Okidoki's example would do nicely, I suppose. Unless @AncientJoe or @IdesOfMarch01 has a spare lying around. ;)...

The @dadams 1853 dime (PCGS AU53) got a happy new home in my Eclectic Box, but he ended up with my nice silvered Constantine Campgate (after it...
I owned a pair of Aaron Lujan cents not long ago. :) [ATTACH] (I think "Girl of Summer 2" - the nekkid lady one- is just whimsical enough to...
Thought it looked a bit like "pale gold".
:vamp::p
It was meant well, and not so much bad info - it's just that certain official counterstamps on this kind of stuff changes the whole ballgame. One...
Indeed they are. Indeed it has, but at least by straying from the topic of Gordian III, we haven't seen any jokes about roaches. ... Yet. Give...
@Randy Abercrombie - in this case it's all about the counterstamp, which was an official (British) government stamp (on a Spanish host coin)...
I know there are fake counterstamps out there, but I dont know how prevalent they are, nor would I have the experience to determine if that...
