A very enjoyable read, Sulla80, thanks for sharing. I wasn't aware of this. New coin requirement unlocked...
Thank you. It's still in its infancy!
Nice coin, and a fantastic collection of Gordian III
Well spotted. There is a very fine scratch (graffiti?) on the coin - a small 'w' exactly where you mentioned. I also saw this on a denarius of...
Cheers, folks! Putting a little bit away for a more special coin. Need to figure out what that will be (Trajan sestertius maybe ).
Happy Friday folks. I haven't purchased too many new coins recently because I've a new home to pay for. I thought I'd share some recent wins at...
Lovely coins, Victor_Clark. I especially like the Aurelian with the American History X reverse. I recently lost a head to head bidding for one of...
Some nice bargains here! I was pleased with this Campgate for 16 dollars. The big chunky Galerius was 31 (and looks and feels great in hand)....
Well done, Codera. That's an impressively low number to assemble a set. I've only 4 at the moment. I haven't succumbed to the lure of 12 Caesars...
A few nice bits of information here. I've never actively collected these coins but find the idea of the series fascinating. I did pick up these 3...
Lovely coin, panzerman. Fantastic portrait and lovely reverse too. An emperor I still need to get.
Very nice coins! And it's always nice to capture an uncommon one. I don't have any Caesarea Maritima, just this Trebonianus Gallus antoninianus....
Lovely strike on that coin! Wonderful detail.
Nice coins all. I haven't really looked into these tiny denominations, but I did buy one at auction as I'm after as full a set of Trajan coins as...
Don't forget the sestertii! I paid 65 pounds for this (minus fees). The coin is much nicer in hand, a nicer green than the photo suggests. [ATTACH]
I got this one from the London Coin fair last year because I thought it was a particularly nice strike. Also my only Plautilla. [ATTACH]
That's a fantastic set. I really like the reverse on that Vespasian (and the Domitian). Any other sets you might pursue now or will you focus on...
That is a beautiful coin. I picked up a few bits and pieces from that same Coin Cabinet auction today, including this Hostilian, while not...
