Nice writeup Donna, damn I really want that Hadrian canopy type.
Very nice catch! I know @David Atherton has seen this before but here's my verison of the same M2 type but the first issue of the type if I'm not...
No offense but you need to add a couple of centuries, the plate money (plåtmynt) where first minted 1644 under Christina, queen of Sweden.
My new goals are to collect roman silver and focus on "appeal". Not necessary the highest graded but the most beautiful versions I can find...
Hehe same situation here as my small childhood collection of Swedish coins still are with my parents. Might be able to post some of them at a...

Yep that's correct. I think the fastest delivery was two days for me so they are really fast. It's quite convenient to use them when I'm living so...
Ahh thanks! Somehow I can't embed the videos so I get better resolution, will investigate more if it's possible to solve, might be the forum that...
That's a really cool one too so much action in the reverse with Hercules strangling the lion. It is my favourite too Donna. :happy:
