Restitutor Thanks for the return of the cabinet, I'll keep an eye out . https://www.numisforums.com/classifieds/

I have enjoyed them CPK and have kept about 25 of my favorite ancient coins. Most of them are of silver content and about half are Greek and half Roman. I am selling off coins I never even have time to look at again.

I did search by seller jdmern , when it comes up as jdmern and not Boardwalk Numismatics, you can see various categories. I bet I have most of those ancients consigned that they are selling https://www.ebay.com/sch/11116/i.html?_fss=1&_saslop=1&_sasl=jdmern&LH_SpecificSeller=1

Yes, I have to agree that it can be a bit troubling that my coins don't fall under specific categories for some reason under sellers items. Where are they? I don't know, but they are found in the correct categories amidst their kind of all eBay items listed everywhere. The link (n my first post a bit above here) is supplied to me from the seller to show only my list of items. Maybe that has something to do with it?

I don't see a link for The Cabinet anymore? So I'll post this and hopefully that is OK. STARTING February 16th, 2024 I have consigned over 800 lots with jdmern also known as Boardwalk Numismatics on eBay for sale. This link will have at least 100 new lots over the next couple/few months that are all from my collection. They start at 9 PM EDT on Thursdays. They end 10 days later starting at 9 M EDT Sunday. Sometimes there will be as many as 200 lots up at a time. Every lot starts at an opening bid of $1.99 There are always quite a few super deals for you when the hammer falls on Sunday nights. People get lucky and some get sniped. It is fun for me to watch as they end. There are US type coins, silver, exonumia, ancients, and other numismatic treasures to be had. Please check out the link below. As long as there are items showing for sale, they are from my collection. This is my third large liquidation through consignment. I don't have an eBay account. I have no control over these lots so I encourage you to direct all questions to the seller through eBay. I believe the seller combines shipping cost, but perhaps that would be something you want to be clear on.

Wishing both well. In my thoughts and a immediate prayer.

Unusually late, first significant snowfall we had last night. I woke up to this in N. Central Pennsylvania. Probably another 6 or so storms to go and we'll have color again. It is still snowing but due to stop soon.

Haven't had much to post lately. Haven't bought any ancients. Maybe I am getting a little picky or maybe great deals have dwindled a bit in the past year. At any rate, I think I am going to concentrate on silver ancients. Probably Roman denarii of those I don't have any of yet. I also like the silver Greek coins. Nothing new here but want to wish all you a Merry Christmas or whatever you celebrate this time of year. I'm still around and check in pretty often. Just not much to post.

No 6 Herakles beating the old snake I like the story and the coin.

Congratulations Numis Forums So glad to be one of you.

I voted for no 1 white/white simply because I tend to focus on the coin by itself. The others draw away my attention, (and I think it is magical how they seem to float about a quarter inch off the surface.)

I read it all and found it a superb interview although some went way over my head. Thank you for the most interesting and well thought out answers. I also must tip my hat to the interviewer, Thanks

A thought came to me as I looked at these super sestertii. I pondered just how hard the hammer had to swung and how heavy it must have been to displace the flow of metal into such a high relief design. I don't think I would last long on that job.

I'm having Deja Vu all over again. :-)
