I'm sorry that the text of the coin's reverse inscription I was uploading did not display properly here in Moneta. That reverse is: MHTPOPOL / EOCBN (in...

Hello Andrew, I see no one replied so I will put my two cents worth in. These coins really had no denomination. It is supposed that they were used as...
Hi, Firstly thanks to those of you who have already emailed me with an answer to my question. It would appear from several comments that I have loaded my coin ...
John, Are you reading a very faint BN on either side of the period below the OL? Why so faint, when the other letters and the adjacent period are very bold? ...
Haven't looked at the image yet, but a 'XII' mark on a Claudius II ant will refer to the officina by which it was struck, and quite different to the XXI marks...

I earlier asked anyone interested to grade the following Istros staters, fascinating and mysterious silver coins minted more than 2,300 years ago in ancient...
I just wanted to thank everyone for their numerous responses to my question. Thanks for taking the time, and giving me a load of really good tips. Its much...
What should the full weight be for a middle Byzantine miliaresion (of the type instituted by Leo III)? I have seen these offered in a range of approximately a...
Reid, Obviously ancients cannot be graded the same as modern coins, but perhaps a guide book along similar lines to the grading handbook that exists for US...
Hello friends, As I've already received a couple of emails about this, I just wanted to point out this is not my auction and certainly is not the St. Gallen...
From time to time I see an officina listed for Gordian III, along with the issue number. RIC IV breaks down the issues clearly enough, but makes no mention of...
The assignment of reverse types to particular officinae is totally arbitrary unless the offina numbers are actually recorded on the coins. Of course once one...

Thanks Curtis. I had a feeling that was the case, but wanted to double check that I wasn't missing something in my research. I found it a little perplexing...
We know little of the imitative bronzes of the Republic but I was musing over whether we can answer if these coins are classifiable, and sanctioned and...
Coins from Cartiea (Spain) were not trying to be imitative issues, they are own coins with own magistrate names (and obverse is Jupiter, not Saturn). There are...
