Re: New pickup from Northern Nevada Coin! :)

Hey G3, great pickup. The common damage that occurs with these and many "older" coins includes, holed (a hole drilled to hang from a neckless), corrosion (some of these are found buried in the ground), cleaned and harshly cleaned (wizzed, sandpaper, bon ami, comet, sandblasting), details (...

Re: Should I mention previous offers to a dealer if I have proof?

Wow! I wish I would get those kind of offers from Heritage. Showing the local dealer the offer, might save you lots of time.

Re: Roman Republic Quadrigatus

I know you posted this months ago, but I have to agree.. I love Roman / Greek coins with a quadriga and four horses on them - and yours is beautiful.

Re: Roman Republic Quadrigatus

Not that they compare to yours, but here are a few recent quadrigas I had on my desk ranging from 137 to 46 BC.

1) Cn Domitius Ahenobarbus
2) Marcus Baebius
3) T Carisius

Re: My first ancient gold coin!

Wow! Very nice. All the history this coin had witnessed is just mind boggling. It seems almost a miracle something this old can be in this good of a condition. Congratulations!

Re: My first ancient gold coin!

You certainly like to collect ancients of nice quality! Back when I studied Latin, I liked to translate Ovid - practical Roman life, yet funny. :)

Re: My first ancient gold coin!

Thanks for this glimpse. It would be fun to have read a transliterated copy like that though. I speak Spanish and its fun trying to figure out Latin, Italian, Greek and other languages in writing.
