I am pleased to say that after I receive my AMCC2 coin in a few weeks, my Twelve Caesars set will technically be complete. I say "technically"...
No worries. I figured it all out with a little help from my friends! I successfully initiated the transfer. Congrats on a great auction!
I did all that. But the information I got after checkout was just the bank routing numbers. I did not get the more banal information such a street...
I’m trying to pay through transferwise and they are requesting things I don’t know, such as AMCC email, city, address, postal code, province, and...
I targeted only one coin this time around, but I won it. By my modest standards the coin was expensive. But I got it at a fair price that I hope...

This eBay seller has no fewer than seven of them right now, each for about $30, which might not be remarkable given the condition. The metal looks...
Let me preface this post by stating that I see absolutely no problems with any coins posted here. In fact, they are quite lovely. I do not have a...
That first Claudius sestertius is amazing. All are beauties.
I enjoyed this post. I think there’s also another much less satisfying option. So much depends upon timeframe--the time of Jesus or the time of...
