German numismatics is very vast so one needs to be specific about what one means by german coins. After all, there were more than 30, And...
Very nice! Beautiful tone and great surfaces in spite of minor imperfections. Congratulations:). I agree with previous comments that Otho...
Don't quite recall exactly how much, but certainly below $45. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Thank you for the good news, TIF. Very relieved to hear Steve is doing well. I can imagine how he must feel:). Here are a couple of coins to...
My favorite 'fat' roman is Vitellius, but he wasn't a tyrant (at least he didn't get much of chance time-wise to be one). Here another coin of...
A very nice example of Augustin Iturbide's 8 reales!

Here is another sestertius of Vitelllius. This one is a much scarcer type than PAX, but in very well-worn condition. Vitellius. AD 69. Æ...
Will this do you for 'ugly'? Spanish Mint. (not for sale - possibly unique coin...) [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
That is a very attractive as of Vitellius, Andres. It has a distinctive portrait of the emperor. You can't miss him. Congratulations also on...
Once again, thanks to all for your comments and opinions. Both coins graded straight at NGC: the '71 cc at F12, the 78 CC as EF45. Most of you...
Thank you all for your input. I will post the grades soon. In the meantime, just a comment/question from my part: I always thought that F12 or...

I agree with S-28, and a nice one too!
