I had always wanted a coin depicting Napoleon, and was pleasantly surprised that they were within reach price-wise when I finally picked up some...
Almost all my bids got blow away by a huge margin, but I am very happy to have got a lot of Islamic coins for 75 Chf. At least 4 of the 9 coins in...

Perhaps a badly engraved bull/water buffalo. Alternatively a Gaur (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaur). Actually looks like a cross between an...
That is a very well preserved portrait for a bronze of this type! My brain just can't see the reverse right, reversing the positive and negative...

Thessaly, Larissa (c. 344-337 BC), AR Obol, Herrmann Group VII, pl. V, 19; SNG Copenhagen 135 (10 mm, 0.99 g) Obverse: Head of the nymph Larissa...

I think a bovine is very likely, except I see two ears and a “horn” (which could well be two symmetrical horns that look like one viewed...
Unfortunately, “bid first, read description later (or never)” seems to be getting increasingly common. I just love how some descriptions employ...
Hi. Any ideas as to which creature this punch on Mauryan PMCs might represent? G&H describes it as a rhinoceros (mark 320), which I find...
I found another one with a different legend, but the same “soldier/Mars” reverse: very likely the same type posted by Cucumbor. These Gordian III...
Very nice work. Too bad Photoshop and other Adobe software now have a subscription model. I still use a very old lifetime licence version of...
These are amazing! Which software did you use?
At a rudimentary level, this already exists/is possible. I have coins that came with labels having QR codes linked to online information.
