Falling horseman are some of the most common of Roman coins. Granted, the AE2's are less common than the AE3's, but altogether they are so common,...
Nice coins everyone! Volusian was one of those non-entity emperors, at least on the information we have. He just sort of fell into the throne by...
It's a different hobby altogether from collecting. I tried my hand at some cleaning and decided it wasn't my cup of tea. I'll cure coins of BD,...
I'll give you a hint on attribution. Letters 3 and 4 of the mint mark tell you the mint.
Also, nice job cleaning it up without damaging it! There's nothing more annoying to me than a coin with decent details that's scratched up by...
Sorry about the attribution on the second. It does indeed look like Carinus or at least not Diocletian. I used to get annoyed with dealers who...
AP as with elephant is always one of my favorites - MVNIFICENTIA.

I love it. I don't even collect any of these coins, but I'm going to steal it and use it as my background one in a while. (If you don't mind of...
Nothing wrong with Greek coins. I like to pick one up once in a while myself. :) I don't have any of the Kyzikos types at the moment, but I did...
I can't find any coins of Gothicus in any of the usual databases with a fully spelled-out CAESAR in the inscription. It's always CAES.
Nice! Neat layout, great pics. I assume the World Coins section is a work in progress? I don't get anything when I click on it.
I also like the large images. The coins look like they'll clean up very nicely. Great find. I hope they don't get stuck in a museum drawer - I...
Nice coin Ajaz! I love small Greek bronzes with detail and centering. Congats on the win, CNG I presume? The only time I win at CNG is when I'm...
It would be Me 1, S-K 1. Those are the coins cataloged by Meshorer and Schmitt-Korte that include the symbol ˄ under Nike's arm. Me 1A and S-K 2...
