I started out with David Van Meter's guide to Roman Imperial coins, and it's still available. Sear's Roman coins and their values (5 volumes) are...
That's a nice example. How many ancients dealers were there, besides HJB? Being a large coin guy, I have only one quadrans of Claudius, and it's...
Congrats on the Decius upgrade!
I heard that the firm of Harlan Berk was there, or at least it was announced as such on Aaron Berk's podcast. I haven't been to a coin show since...
Dad visits the shop about once a month. Perhaps I'll ask him to scope the prices of rainbow toners. Yes, I realize the tones are probably...

Thanks for all the advice!

That certainly sounds quite affordable, a good deal less costly than the decent ancients were. Is the NGCX series any cheaper than the regular NGC?
I'm not really into modern coins, but I'd rather like one Morgan. Perhaps this year for my birthday I'll request that. The owner of the local...
Perhaps a griffin?
Heck, for $399 one can still get a Byzantine gold tremissis. I'll stick with known quantities.
