Ah, great coin, thanks for showing. Here’s a third ruler from the same mint and workshop. I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s the same engraver on all...
Hi Valentinian. Although I understand what you mean here, I disagree. If the grade doesn’t matter, then we should stop using grades at all. It’s...
That’s making the grade in a very poetic way, @NewStyleKing :) Duly noted.
Thanks, Limes! I got it from Naumann, yes. It was an auction with a lot of varying price levels, I think. Some coins went really high. I bid on...
There are quite a few issues with both 3 and 4 moneyers in that period. It’s quite interesting, I agree. I like your worn coins:) They have been...
I agree with the explanation. Knowing their photos, I’m expecting a solid VF coin. But you never know until you have it in hand:)
Thanks, buddy :) Yes.. Very nice style on that type, I see you have one yourself.

I like a lot of different music, just like most people with two ears and a brain. So I can’t post one single piece of music and say «that’s me»....
Oh, so you said something bad about another person, motivated by the call to represent honesty? How virtuous! [ATTACH] Carinus 283-285 AD...
Nice post! Don’t know if it’s relevant, but.... Here’s Venus Felix, mother of Cupid. (My photo in the Vatican 2008) 2nd C AD, with a head that...
Love it. Looks just as solid as Rundetårn in Copenhagen. :)
Oh, SWEET! I like that I have a denarius in a style similar to yours. [ATTACH] Incidently, I have one of Faustina I that I have had for a...
I guess so :) The reason why I didn’t catch the humor, is that quite a lot of collectors equal price with rarity. I have coins that are R6 and R7...
I agree. I was wondering if coins of Vitellius had gone down in price. I disagree with the $60 evaluation posted earlier. I would have bought the...
