It hammered in that auction in July at £80K+20%. As @panzerman noted, it auctioned high. Adding margin brings you into the range quoted in the...
Ever since the illustration on the dustjacket of Sear RCV4, it was a portrait I had to acquire at some point. Since the artistic shakeup under...
My latest - a dupondius of Nero. Since all my other examples range from F-VF, it was time for a nicer one.. Probably AU if the TPGs got to it,...
I've bought a nice coin recently from Marius Ringsrud, good communication and service. He looks to be part of the Norwegian numismatic scene....
I never knew about these, rather nicer than what actually went into production. Digging around I found this additional piece, clearly part of the...
This is a big problem when dealing internationally - less so in the US which traditionally is free trade in practice (no import taxes). As it...
Just kidding of course with the last - except that to say the AE/AR relationship during this period is hard to nail down - so much of the fine...
Normally unsold lots are for a reason - overpriced/nasty. Sometimes worth a shot though. I can only imagine this Syracuse bronze put bidders off...

If you log into MA Shops & pull up the 'My MA' page, underneath the summary of bought items should be 'Watched categories' - delete action on the...
Having a closer look, probable BD on the Ob near IMP, and few other spots here & there I don't much like the look of. Needs some work looks like.
In clarification, the legends started at 1h on the seller image 'PACE PR...', my image has the reverse rotated 180 degrees so they start at 7h as...
This coin came recently from LAC, described as 'retrograde legends'. Since the legends started at 1h, a 180 rotation made it clear the legends...
With regard to the OP, this is just a bad fake. My first impressions of many of the recent offerings from the new entries into the auction market...
