Wow, @IdesOfMarch01, you never fail to bring it. However... Comic Sans? Seriously?! I'm shocked. :D [IMG] Kill Comic Sans, a shooting game...
I agree. But with ancient coins those differences don't carry the same meaning as for modern coins. Each die is handmade; the differences...
I have a few coins from the Imperatorial era. [ATTACH]
What do you believe is different? The obverse appears to be a die match. The OP's coin shows reverse inscription "IB", year 12. The Wildwinds...
I'm not averse to the idea of buying a "genuine" British museum electrotype of certain coins, even for low 3 figures, if it is something I could...
I think it is this: [ATTACH] Nero, AE25 of Tyana, Cappadocia. Dated local year 12, AD 66. NERWN KAISAR, laureate head right / TYANEWN ET IB,...

Good point. LRBs are certainly plentiful. I maintain that discussion of interesting varieties and features may lead to increased desire for...
No thanks. I'm an old-fashioned woman. What's mine is mine and what's yours is ours. :D
;) However, as many CoinTalkers have been showcasing their LRBs and discussing esoterica related to them, I predict an upswing in popularity and...
Thanks! Not sure I've ever heard anyone describe an Alexandrian tet as beautiful :D. Now don't you go start collecting them, y'hear? Nobody...

I'm quite fond of the variety of religious figures depicted on ancient coins and rapidly lose interest as repetitive Christian iconography...
Okay :) I've not yet posted two of the coins but will go ahead and show them in this group shot. While the two previously unrevealed coins may...
