I've got lots of the two more common types -- those are just the two that were handy at the moment -- but that's my only one of the Divus...
Wow, $22 for a Sestertius is rarely a bad deal, but in this case quite a good one! Here's my most recent Severus Alexander Sestertius, also got...
I always assumed my Corinth Stater was from an old collection and I would find a prior provenance someday. Bought in 1991 (or thereabouts). In...
This is my favorite day of the year -- getting to see all the wonderful Bruti and Caesares (if I'm getting the plurals right)! Here's my...
Okay, one more, since I don't think anyone's shared this type yet: Liber or Bacchus, looking very pleased with how the Bacchanalia is...
Good topic and coins! I've got one that is not exactly Dionysos and Bacchus and Bacchanalia, but a lesser-known set of rites and deities that...
Both great coins! I can't get enough of AE (or BI) Tetartera with the emperor wearing loros. Just such cool looking coins. Funny you call it...
Oh, yeah, I see now, you're exactly right of course. Thanks for pointing it out -- I've updated my notes! What's really interesting is that none...
That is a great set of John Tetartera! They're all great (I love Tetartera generally) but the first one is spectacular, probably one of the best...
Here's a Volusian that was a "snack" from the "pick-bin" at AMCC 2 (Lot 470), previously JB (Edmonton) Collection: [ATTACH] A couple of other...
It's a great example, period! I recognize that one from looking up all the ones I could find in auctions. It seems like there are very few showing...
Cool -- this looks like one of those very early bronze coins of Macedon, some of the very first bronze coins struck, c. 450 or maybe 400 BCE or a...
Well, too bad, I was hoping that was a real price! I've had a bunch of neat, but not special, Palaeologian and Komnenos hemi-tetartera and...
No problem! I can tell you how! Keyword searching is the trick... I couldn't tell what the design was, but I thought there's something "crossed,"...
I love it! I collect interesting provenances wherever possible, so I can hardly forgive myself for striking out on all the [edit in italics,...
That is very cool! Czech numismatist, author. He has dozens of entries in Clain-Stefanelli's 1985 Numismatic Bibliography (highly recommended...
Oh, I'll definitely get in contact for comments when my draft is ready! :D Great questions and information! I always wondered if those "V"...
You have it right! Nobody doesn't love a Sestertius! Even relatively cheap examples ($20-50) can be quite impressive, just due to their size,...
These captives questions are really endlessly interesting to me. I would say it's probably my favorite collecting theme in Roman coinage. There is...
That's a great coin and another great blogpost on the Muñoz collection! I bought the following ex-Muñoz (in large part) specifically for the...
