I have to admit I keep seeing this thread on the recent threads list, and every dang time I think ya'll are discussing Marc Antony. :(
I would say that coin is a F. For that guess, I am using the level of leaf detail and the fact the LIBERTAD is still intact but weak as my primary...
Just thought I would say that that is a very nice coin for a $20 Randy. :) I doubt most collectors would be so lucky to find that purchase.
I don't disagree with your thoughts, but thought I would clarify why corporations are people. I know a lot of people like to throw out this is...
No biggie guys. Doug has to enforce the rules for even innocuous things lest we get overwhelmed with just commercial posts. I have seen it happen...
Well, I have spent quite a bit of time looking at the enlarged image. Of course in hand it would be better. My only recurring thought is why the...
Those work. :) Cool greeks, I love those where the flan is so small they can only put the front of the animal. I always thought they looked weird,...
Actually an extremely good guess. It would also explain why the marks are not in the rims like I observed earlier, as turning up the rim should...
Yeah, but I was doing it without books and I don't specialize in these. :) If I can hijack the thread a second, when did they start using DN? I...
If I may ask a question. I thought PMD could occur at the mint. I was always taught that non-PMD occurred all of the way up until the coin was...
Ok, hate to be a jerk, (but those who know me it doesn't bother me that much), but on the reverse are those scratches above and to the left of...
And, how are you supposed to be able to open up the airtight and handle your coins? ...oh, sorry, I forgot US collectors weren't allowed to...
There you go OP, definitive attribution from someone who is much better than I to know. :) The london mint makes a more special coin, btw.
Yeah, the obverse is easy, made to look like a 4th century Roman, (maybe Constantine). The reverse is from an ancient jewish coin from when the...
4th century Roman, looks like Maximianus to me, but its not my specialty. Post it in the ancient section and I bet you get your answer in 5...
My browser must be broken, I don't see any pictures. :(
I agree this is a huge concern. Basically the politicians are mortgaging the Fed. About the only thing we can hope for is economic growth...
Heck I trust both of you guys for coppers over most anyone here. :) Op you sure got some good experts to post on your thread.
Yeah, you ran into my problem with different sized coins. Add into that ancients can be either extremely thick, or extremely thin, and don't have...
I wasn't disagreeing with that outlook. If its simple as that I agree, I was simply trying to say "always buy the best you can afford" is NOT...
Separate names with a comma.
