Is there some agreed upon convention for orientation of these and other wreath types? In general, I orient them with the wreath ties at the...
Fantastic, Ken!!
I agree with Sev. Those are pretty harsh words, Ras, and it's not like you're a newbie who was suckered into buying a very questionable coin....
What a magnificent COL NEM, @Marsman! The strike, centering, and surfaces are really outstanding!! @Mat, I love yours and others with the...
Very interesting, RC! I'm not sure what to think though. The wedge on your Faustina II doesn't look like a split from flan striking. Fox's...
Great page and fantastic coin! It really speaks to me. Absolutely gorgeous. I have an Imperial denarius of Trajan's column... common but a...

After you take better images, and crop out the 95% of non-coin background, try posting the coin on CT's World Coins board along with the coin's...
Both are remarkable for the reasons you mentioned and I'd gladly have either of them in my collection :).
I'm with Ken... if I couldn't keep both I'd definitely keep #2 :).
What a coup!! Great coin but it gives me an earworm... [MEDIA] :D
Good catch, @shanxi :)
Oh that is fantastic! It's the most artist example of that reverse I've seen! Envious :D Here's the same type issued by his son. [IMG] THRACE,...
From what I've read, the archaic period of non-Eastern coinage ends around 480 BCE. Perhaps if you define it by certain style elements, that...
