Those are both impressive coins! Aspendos has long been on my wish list because it's one of the few ancient ruins I've visited myself. It was a...
If you remember that Heritage quotes prices after the buyer's premium (vs others who quote before) this went for $2600. CNG auctioned two of...
That's a stunning coin! I found this article with more info on Amastris.
Things have been a bit stressful around here. I won't go into the gory details, but I have two teenage sons and I'm currently on call at work....
Is there a site somewhere that lists all of the shows, especially ones with a decent ancient coins presence?
That's a nice shot! Back then I wasn't into photography as I am now. I've been reading History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire where...
Stop feeding the troll people. Fill this thread with positive things. Had to go back and look at my Rome photos from almost 18 years ago. I...
Nice! Mine was at least sold to me as a Gonatas. Kings of Macedon, Antigonos II Gonatas (277/6-239 BC). AR Tetradrachm (31mm, 16.85g, 3h)....
Everyone else, I have an idea. I'm pretty sure @Gam3rBlake has my on ignore, and she also probably did the same to @Ryro too. This person is a...

I obtained these coins recently, and I'm trying to decide whether to clean them - and if so, how. Do these look fine as is, or should I soak them...
@Ryro @DonnaML with great respect I'd like to point out that I greatly enjoy reading both of your posts here. Both of you have a passion for...
Roma lists the prices in USD in parentheses, since they're aware that the US school system completely fails at teaching math. Last weekend I won...
CNG currently has two copies up for auction and Naumann has one. It's a common coin and appears in about every other auction. I agree with you,...
This is an attractive type that's recently become a lot more popular. I recall this being a coin that was obtainable for < 500 about a year ago....
What I honestly can't understand is why neither acsearch nor coinarchives normalize the results. If I search for "Poliorcetes" vs "Poliorketes",...
It looks like I have a few that haven't been mentioned. [ATTACH] Tetradrachm (Silver, 24 mm, 16.80 g, 7 h), Susa, struck under Koinos, circa...
While I agree with not pre-bidding, one interesting facet I didn't mention above is that - for the coins that were similar - I paid less when I...
From what I've seen, it depends on the coin. The most popular ones that everyone's heard of are going for very high prices. Lysimachos, Ptolemy...
