Now that I've had some to photograph the rest of the batch, here's the full group of 13. I'm especially happy with the Cyzicus Fallen Horseman, a...
That is an interesting little Chalkous (or Dichalkon, etc.)! It could be something obvious that didn't occur to either of us, but I also wouldn't...
Not in the best condition, but this interesting rarity came today in a CNG mystery lot (13 coins ex C.J. Sabine Collection). They had it...
I've posted my two presentable Senates once before -- but not in the Follow-the-Coin-Game, so I'll consider them fresh enough to appear here....
Here's a relatively rare new addition to my "Captives" collection. Elagabalus AE26 from Moesia Inferior, Nikopolis ad Istrum. One captive can be...
Not Celtic, I don't think. It's actually from Kings of Thrace, Adaois. Mid 3rd century BCE. (You can barely make out ΑΔΑΙ on the reverse above...
Surprised no one has mentioned Frascatius (Tom Mann, twin cities area eBay collector-seller). Maybe like me, who hesitated to avoid the extra...
I love this period of coinage -- in large part because it's the golden age of the control symbol. Great examples so far! I love the way the Papius...
I love @Cucumbor 's two set photos, really beautiful to see them laid out like that! Interesting that this post about "sets" has been revived...
It seems like there are occasional "Limes Denarii" as early as Trajan: https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?term="limes+denarius"+trajan (Most...
Indeed. For this one, I can't believe how many are out there. I've seen photos of dozens, so there must be hundreds, maybe thousands. They provide...
Well... I don't have this type, but I've got one with the same obverse (Mars with a flowery helmet looking left). It's actually from the...
Ooh, that's a great example!
Unfortunately that's a well-known forgery. This NIKO XII has been around since at least 1995 (when Joel Malter published two specimens in his...
Sorry for the repetition here, but for anyone interested, I've just finished the ETB = Eric ten Brink = Okidoki entry in my online "Provenance...
Here's a type I've been wanting to add to my subcollection of Thessaly, Phalanna for a while. The obverse is Zeus Peloris, the reverse is the...
I previously posted my favorite Pegasus in this thread, so this is a good chance to post my second favorite! [ATTACH] Greek (Classical)....
Here's another Stater with Graffito ("Ξ" on reverse), this time AR Stater from Boeotia, Thebes (magistrate Theog-): [ATTACH] NEXT: Amphora or...
Very cool coin! Here are my busts of Senate from Phrygia, Sebaste and Grimenothyrae: [ATTACH] Phrygia, Sebaste AE (27mm, 8.07g), temp....
That is a fantastic haul, well done! I can see several groups and individual coins in there justifying a $50 USD price tag. (The Commodus...
