An Albinus to keep an eye out for is the Alexandrian mint denarius the existence of which was not realized until after RIC/BMC was issued. Most...
I am curious how this applies here. IMO the British Museum specimen is by far the better of the two because the other was scrubbed, scratched and...
Thanks to all. The point here is there are two very different 'errors' at play. When a coin is struck twice in the mint at one time within a...
Since I mentioned it, the Arcadius coin below shows the more standard situation where the reverse is overstruck but the obverse is not. The...
I don't value the plastic as much as most of you. I also don't require AU as a minimum grade. I paid $22.50 for mine (slightly different and not...
Every year for several years now some of us have posted an end of year list of our ten favorite new purchases. It does not look like I will be...

We saw Magnentius so here is the same thing in Decentius. [ATTACH]
What do you make of this Comes brockage with Victory standing on both sides? [ATTACH] My favorite Victory is the VICTOR IVST AVG issued by...
I find it a bit amazing that, in 1958, there would be a genuine ancient coin on the surface in a major attraction with many visitors. On the...
If I feel uneasy about a coin, I do not feel I have to be able to explain why I feel uneasy, I just walk away. I do not like that coin. Tooled?...
