I have a fourre of a Lydian/Persian double siglos if that helps? [ATTACH] For some reason I only have a photo of the obverse. The rev is a double...
I save a lot of coin pictures and use html for my web page as I use complex naming for coin photos. WordPress couldn't keep up with the naming....
I very much like siliquae of Julian (aka Julian II). Not sure if your coin is barbarous - didn't they usually get the lettering wrong? Maybe a...
Love Ptolemaic Coinage. Here's one I show kids: a Ptolemy II AE47, weighing 98.1 g. Ex Tom Cederlind auction 5/22/2014, lot # 111. [ATTACH]...
While I'm not a strong US buyer, for many years all of the US gold and even foreign gold, I've looked at, has been slabbed. Except for my...
Actually I've been looking at/for Classic Head gold. I'd say this coin could be a low-end 63 today but I dislike the amount of minor bangs for a...
I particularly dislike PCGS or NGC CAC coins. I've found CACs to perhaps be problematic. Possibly not all CAC's are this way but I tend to see...
I've been looking for decent mid-range $20 Libs and lately $5 Libs for some time. With the Double Eagles, I've been looking at online auction...
Thanks much, a very interesting history and some really neat coins. Aside from occasionally one of the full wheel ones, I don't recall ever having...
Weren't ALL buffalo nickels found in circulation? Even uncirculated ones. I don't recall any treasury bags of buffalos being saved and then sold...
Me too! For a 7th grade school project my son had to build a model employing shapes for which had to calculate the volumes and surface areas. He...
Really I was born 1804 year earlier! In 218 AD.
I could not find a numismatic auction firm by that name on Google. Also as Europe is 5+ hrs ahead of us the sale is probably over. Too bad as...
Opps, I forgot to look at the date part. Valens was emperor 364 - 378 AD, which is when he was killed in the battle of Hadrianopolis. Come to...
Wow, 20,400 Euro for a follis? Seems like quite an early follis: must've been before they became the nummus? {sorry for the pun}. It seems that...
Excellent! Try to look for a nicer Julian the Philosopher, aka the Apostate. Also a book suggestion which is really good. [ATTACH]
Is "2T" a double-taler? The 1802 Bust $ is also a beauty: no need for an unc with one like that.
Thanks, I'll look for the book. I might be going to the British museum again but in less than 5 months. One can view their collection online but...
Actually it was fun awarding the prizes. One runner-up person didn't claim theirs but otherwise all of the coins have been ordered. I didn't...
"Only 8 Christian ones dated before 1500 " (almost like a US collector saying I have ONLY 14 1804 silver dollars...)
