Stunning coin! I'm not sure if I'll ever pick up an Alexander stater. These are the lifetime coins I have from Alexander. [ATTACH] Alexander the...
Nice provincials! I'd have to go with the Trajan quadriga or the Philip II tetrassarion. I really love the reverses of these coins.
Recently my wife recommended a close friend to try yoga to reduce her stress. "I'm not going to join a cult," was her response. And I'm not even...
Thanks! I have a few coins with similarly vague attributions. I think this is enough to assign a coin to her. I'll keep my eye out.
Wow! You should keep track of them in a document. That's what I do.
TikTok is all about getting views. People will make up anything just to get attention, and she succeeded. Luckily, though, I focus on Greek coins.

Thanks! I didn't participate in Secret Saturnalia, but had I did you're probably the only one I could have picked something up for. I'm currently...
