I know who bought the Minerva Bull in Heritage, and who underbid the one in Triton.
It's a cast fake
Please don't touch the coin. You will literally ruin it IMHO. The toning is beautiful and desirable in ancient coins.
The ANS was started by a 16 year old coin collector and American Civil War veteran. From what I can tell, the bulk of the ANS' collection has...

Great writeup. Yeah, that's no knife...it's a sword. Are we sure this was minted in Rome and not Spain?
I'm going. Can't wait and look forward to the new venue. Really missed it this year since it was cancelled.
+1 for Wise.com Wish everything in life were so easy to use and keenly priced.

Unfortunately, I don't know. Sternberg never seemed to disclose anything about the collectors who consigned to him.
Almost 2 years for export permits?! Wow that sucks. You get an award for patience with that. Congrats on the new coin! The May 1986...
Isn't this the wrong color, Panzer? ;)
There are actually lots of "common" issues in the Roman Republican silver issues (with hundreds of know dies) and they won't necessarily...
Yup, those. I know that Crawford called the 42/1 symbol a corn ear, but it sure looks more like a wheat spike to me. Minted in Sicily where...
Not generically between 28, 29 and 30. There are other issues that are rarer and will command a rarity premium. Of course, quality still...
You should be! Don't be too worried about the classification. Quadrigati are notoriously difficult to classify and there are still outliers that...
