I've always been a distant admirer of ancients, specifically the Shekel of Tyre, Athena Owl, Greek Tortoise, and others. However, due to their pricey nature & my ongoing collecting projects I've never decided to purchase one. But the other day I decided to slightly dip my toe into the ancient's world (and I'm a sucker for these ANACS holders ) & purchased this Denarius. Got it off of the ol fee bay for $110, I really don't know if thats a good price or a huge overpay, but I like the coin. However I really don't know much about it, so thoughts / history or a link to an online resource would be much appreciated.

I have very little interest in the jefferson nickel series, however I find the proof war nickels interesting & so purchased 2 of them. I think they ran me around $100-$120 each for a pf65 ogh & a pf66 pcgs. I don't see myself getting anymore of the proof series. Would much rather finish my proof mercury set.

If I had $500 laying around & needed to spend invest, I would get a Albany Commemorative half & a Capped bust quarter. But I feel I would have a tough time staying on track

Yes this coin appears counterfeit. The overall appearance is wrong, very soft. Date & motto look like the wrong font & are very mushy. The center weakness / softness. Reverse also looks off & has a very soft center..

Looks like a genuine morgan, however I wouldn't trust the grade, just a basement slab.. Anyway i'd say au/unc details harshly cleaned.

Not super interested in copper rounds, I'm a silver guy, so I guess dependent on price.. Was looking back on the auctions and dollar increments seemed rough. I'd be interested in purchasing one but not as much interested in bidding. But if thats the only way, we shall see.
