Definitely better than EF...I'd say AU-MS. There's plenty of luster there to support that. Not sure why the eagle's breast looks weak/worn since...
Last year we visited Tamarindo, just south of Playas del Coco. Guanacaste and the Pacific side was nice, but I definitely enjoyed the Caribbean...
Si, convengo! Pero todavia tengo mucho espanol a aprender.
Only at coin shows now. I've stopped going to brick-and-mortar coin stores since I haven't found one I like or trust here in Denver. Luckily,...
Just a few weeks back, I purchased a scarce bronze coin of Augustus for $7. I think that's my best find so far. I usually come across good deals...
Oh, I met quite a few American AND British ex-pats there, especially where we were staying (Puerto Viejo)...and I'm sure I could have found a bank...

Flips all the way, for the reasons stated above.
Ha, unfortunately, I read waaay to many web comics...xkcd, Dinosaur Comics, Piled Higher & Deeper, The Perry Bible Fellowship, Wondermark, Cyanide...
Tiberius, huh? Is the obverse a depiction Tiberius or Augustus? If it's any additional help, I can make out the letters AVGVSTV on the obverse,...
Sorry to hear about this....hopefully the coin turns up, or you run across an even better example for even less money (hey, you never know!)....
Bump.
Seriously! Even if you hated somebody intensely...would you dump their ashes in a garbage can like that? COLD.
OK guys, I was able to take some photos. Here are the best two, IMO. I'm hoping I can get a solid attribution, because so far I've had no luck....
Exactly, I don't think it is the first type I mentioned at all. Hopefully I can get pictures to you all tomorrow. It would be nice if this were a...
