This came today. While not high grade I think my imaging took a way a little detail as well. The second Roman/Byzantine facing solidus after the Licinius II issue that costs five figures.

You could complain, I mean if you see the guy walk past your place and not even bother to look that's pretty crappy. I used to have one like that too, I think it was in North Saint Paul.

I was just going to post that. We are lame

Yes, those are them! You sure have fast access to all these coin images. Did you upload everything to Omnicoin?
-
Someone did that not too long ago taking ancient coin blanks and striking his own designs. They turned out pretty nice, I think I have one somewhere.

So what do they say? Mail all your coins to NGC?

I just received Art Forms and Civic Life in the Lare Roman Empire by H.P. L'Orange. This was recommended on the Byzantine yahoo group. I was inquiring about the reasons of the change from realistic portraits done in profile to the more abstracted facing portraits used in the later Empire. So hopefully this will shed some light.

The mailman brought a book not a coin, but I did bring this back from vacation.

My 1st edition of the Coin World Alamanac arrived today thanks to another thread on this forum Now I just have to get the more recent version as well

Haven't other coins sold old, like the Buffalo $1 people mention? I don't know about this one, personally I don't think the 235th anniversary of anything should get a coin. At least stick to normal round anniversaries. 1905 had plenty of events worth commemorating.

I love, love, love the early gold. Liberty just looks funky. Not in my price range at the moment, maybe in 30 years when the kids are self sufficient.

Oh, no! Sell your coins and buy books! You know, I mostly have. I've turned over the coins in my collection numerous times. The books on the other hand, I've pretty much kept. I've never had an urge to sell books, but I've sold a lot of coins. I bet that says something

The last book I bought was the Syllogue Nummorum Sasanidarum Volume 3. Two of the 6 are now out meaning I have to spend at least another $600 to get the set. Maybe I should sell my library and buy coins
