But, now it's back to coins!  I have fifteen auctions ending Sunday night. 
There are some nice world coins, three lots of ancients, a rare, uncleaned
Constantine the Great posthumous issue and a several other rare ancients
including an unlisted Valerian II (256-258 AD) As and a DIVO NERVE antoninianus
issued by Trajan Decius (249-251 AD):

You will notice I have two proof British coins up for sale, a 1937 penny and an
1882-H farthing that is impaired.  If you are the winning bidder for either of
these coins and, when you receive it, do not think it is a proof, I will pay
your return postage if you send it back.

More auctions start tomorrow night as well!

Here are my auctions for this week.  I've put up a couple of US coin auctions,
some nice 19th and 20th century foreign coins, several lots of ancient coins and
some rare ancients; an unlisted Valerian II As, a Saloninus antoninianus, a DIVO
NERVE commemorative antoninianus issued by Trajan Decius and an uncleaned
Constantine I posthumous AETERNA PIETAS AE-4. If you like uncleaned coins this
one is a rare coin.

I love the huge Trajan sestertius.  It's a very nice coin.

My latest batch of auctions of world and ancient coins ends tomorrow evening.
There are some bargains to be had among the Romans, especially the lower grade
Vespasian IVDAEA denarius, the Florian antoninianus and the lovely EF twin
victories.  Please also note my "big boy" of the week, that wonderful Macrinus
denarius!

Speaking of the IVDAEA denarius, my latest copy of "Biblical Archaeology Review"
arrived yesterday and they have a great illustrated article on the Judea Capta
coins of Rome.  Here's a link to a summary of it if you are interested:

Dear List Members,

Here are my eBay auction listings for this week.  I had a crazy week last week
and didn't get them posted until tonight, so they close next Monday evening.

I have twelve lots; all ancients.  There are two nice and rare coins; a Nero
SALVS AVG denarius and a Macrianus (260-261 AD) antoninianus.

I have a couple of lots of coins, including one that contains antoniniani of
Allectus, Quintillus and Numerian and a number of other high grade bronze and
silvered bronze coins.  There's also a low grade Severus II follis for the
bargain hunter.

There are some nice coins up for auction, so please have a look:

In this case ,Aventntus did mean adventure .Probus never thought he would join
the Rough Riders in this manner.
I have had this happen to me but never a sivered coin.I have had uncleaned coins
go  thru the Vacumm and losen up some crusties and afterwqardfs clean up easier
but I would not do it intentionally .To much "Clunk Clunk" during the turmoil.

Dear List,

Here are my eBay auctions for this week.  All the money I make goes into the
fund so that my wife and daughters can come with me on my sabbatical next summer
while I am a volunteer on the dig at the Roman fort site of Vindolanda in the
UK.  (They won't dig.  They'll relax and see the sites.)

I have sixteen auctions, most of the ancients.  There are several lots of
cleaned and uncleaned coins and a very high grade uncleaned silvered Licinius I
AE-3 for that should be fun to clean.

I have three rarer coins this week; a ROMA medallic AE-4 (a very rare and
interesting little coin), an Aemilian VIRTVS AVG antoninianus and a Divus
Galerius follis with FORTI FORTVNAE reverse.

There is a Hadrian ADVENTVS AVG dupondius with a great historical reverse, but a
problem obverse and a number of other nice Romans along with two auctions of
British or British India coins.

Please take a look and I hope you find something worth bidding on.

I have just started eleven new eBay auctions that will end next Sunday evening.

There are seven lots of ancient coins.  The highlight is an EF Hadrian
RESTITVTORI GALLIAE denarius.  It is truly nice!  I also have two lots of Roman
bronzes; most of the coins in them are cleaned, but some could use additional
work.  There is also a rare Trajan Decius semis and a high grade silvered
Constantius II camp gate.

In the world coin category I have a gem red BU 1863-A French ten centimes and an
EF 1901 Victoria half crown..

Please take a look.  I hope there is something there that may interest you.

Something to consider is whether or not this is soft solder like that
used for plumbing or hard solder usually used for jewelry. Hard solder is
much higher temperature and requires the use of a torch. Soft solder is,
well, soft and could be easily scraped off with a sharp tool or removed
with solder wick and a soldering iron.

When I worked as an electronics technician ,we used a product called solder
wick.When used with solder flux and a soldering iron ,you should be able to
remove most of the solder from the surface.Be careful that you dont put too much
heat to the coin suface or you cold damage it.
A second choice would be to take it to a jeweler and see if they would do it for
you if you have no tools or experience to do it yourself.

I have a few set aside that may have been soldered to use as jewelry at one

These fakes were recently discussed on the Ancients.info forum.  Here's the link
along with photos:

http://ancients.info/forums/showthread.php?threadid=2671

They are good, so people would be advised to become familiar with them so they
can spot these fakes and not get taken.

bulgerin@...

These are definitely not like the ones that6 were salted into uncleaned lots a
few years ago but dfrom the scan they actually would fool many of us including
me.

Hello group,

I just wanted to let everyone know that some high quality fakes of rare AEs are
making the rounds. I recently purchased 20 of these from a German ebayer through
an "offline" email offer. I probably wouldn't of suspected that they were fake
had a bought only one. But the 20 were evenly divided into four different types
and they looked too much alike. I found them listed as fakes at Forum Ancient
Coins and at a link found on Wildwinds Alphabetical Index of Imperial Rulers.
Link:

http://wildwinds. com/coins/ ric/fakes2009. htm

Here's a lot of these coins currently being offered on ebay as real:

http://cgi.ebay. de/6-Stueck- roemische- Muenzen-Constant inus-Constans_
W0QQitemZ2605056 85788QQcmdZViewI temQQptZM% C3%BCnzen_ Medaillen?
hash=item3ca7594 f1c

This seller offers no refund, but claims the coins are genuine. Interesting that
he also says these coins have been in his collection for many years, but these
fakes have been circulating for about one year.

Always bid carefully. My rule is if I have any doubt, scroll further.

Best regards,
Ken

Hi Joe,

Sorry I haven't dropped a note. The issue on the main page www.commonbronze.com
was simply that the link was pointed to www.commonbronze.NET/catalog instead of
www.commonbronze.com/catalog .... I have a redirect in the .net area ... but I
allowed the .net domain to expire (I was in the woods) ..... so I have renewed
it ... just need to set servers ... in the meantime I have fixed the link so
that it should work for you now from the main page.

Tony
