    Terrific video ! I have a moderate interest interest in coins in general and ancient coins, and over the past year I've seen some of the graded expensive beautiful ancient coins that come up for sale at Heritage auctions, BUT ... to see these beautiful silver coins, two millennia old, in extremely fine condition, attractively clean and toned; to see that they can be carefully handled in one's hands; and to have the collector explain enthusiastically the features and importance of each coin ... that is a great treat. Thank you for giving us this window into a very interesting corner of history.

    11 months later I am just seeing this... 53,000 views, only 672 subscribers? Hmm? I guess I will be number 673 then! Excellent presentation! You have some extremely rare types in stunning condition. Even your more common types are so well centered, and of the highest artistic style as you mentioned. I see you posted a video on the coin with the swan, going there next! My passion is Biblical coins, and historical coins. Coins that tell stories-which they really do. I love the Athenian owl, the shield coins, and that tiny hemiobol with the Boar. I just acquired one of those to go with my athenian owl... I also think its an funny design-to me it looks like the tunny fish cut through the forepart of the boar! Thank you for the excellent presentation-well done!

  • @timtaylor8406
    @timtaylor8406 Před rokem +2

    Fascinating... thank you for sharing. One question is, do good quality Roman and Greek coins always appreciate in value or does the market sometimes fall ?

    • @ancientcoincollector
      @ancientcoincollector  Před rokem +4

      Hello, well... it depends on. Good quality ancient coins in very good condition and fine style/ asthetics are always in high demand - the prices were very much constantly rising over the past decades.
      However, the ancient coin market also had some ups and downs in that time period - so if anybody wants to use ancient coins as an investment should consider to keep them for probably 10 years at least. It is not said, that the coins will always go up (for example: especially when new finds of a former rare coin type enter the market, prices will usually drop for this specific coin type). It`s always hard/impossible to predict the future. As every market it depends basically on supply and demand.
      And if buying from an auction houses the fees are high - for a roundturn of buying and selling a coin it can end up beeing over 40 percent - so the coin has to grow in value for over 40% to be pofitable for you.

    • @ancientcoincollector
      @ancientcoincollector  Před rokem +1

      Good point. But coins were struck by hand and in large quantity, so there was not the time to strike each coin perfectly, as mints having produced under time pressure as well. Though there are nearly perfect coins out there, they are just not so common depending on type and time period. Many roman coin issues were produced in good qulity regarding centering and flan forms.

    I would like to purchase a Roman coin from BCE in good condition, not as an investment but simply because I want to hold a piece of history. As I have no knowledge of ancient coins, I'm seeking guidance on the cheapest and most reliable way to find and purchase an authentic Roman silver coin in good condition. I want to ensure the coin's authenticity while keeping the cost reasonable. Your expertise and advice would be greatly appreciated.

    • @ancientcoincollector
      @ancientcoincollector  Před rokem

      Well, I can recommend you for example the platform Vcoins.com for ancient coins. Look for a denarius of Trajan or Hadrian for example as they are very common and not that pricy. The dealers there have high standards and give you a lifetime guarantee of the authenticity of the ancient coins they sell.
      If you prefer to buy at an auction, check out biddr.com and look for auction houses in your country to keep the shipping costs low depending on the price range you are willing to buy a coin for.
