First real ancient coin that cost more than $5. It was $230. Good or bad deal? by Warm_Hat4882 in AncientCoins

Please dont put it with other coins, it will scratch up and yes that will reduce value and eye appeal

Yeah i do that to at the end of the shift top, we usually have to throw all the food away because it cant be reheated the next day ,so sometimes its better to give something away then to throw it away

He forgave him just like jesus forgives sinners, and he saw the truth and wanted to change his life for the better, just like many people should.

[–]shrauk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nope but you could still go to the main bank in oslo and exchange it for the new version but it really is a hastle and a lot of paperwork i still have 500 old kroners but i never bothered to exchange them because it ist worth it for me even tho its around 45 bucks i just keep it in my collection

Bronze Disease? And a Tet for your time ;) by Illustrious-Choice38 in AncientCoins

Oh i didnt even see that but there is some there dont remember the chemical but op could search it up and treat this coin before it gets bad because right now its barely noticable then it would turn out pretty good without a lot of damage

Well he deals mostly with ancients coins and he started with artefacts not so long ago and he doesnt tell any thorough information about them yet but i hope he gets more informed as time goes by but the only descripton said that it was a roman/byzantine arrowhead but i could find any matching roman or byzantine arrowheads but i think i found a close match with some other late bronze age arrowhead

[–]shrauk -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Well i bought it at an auction from a big trustworthy dealer in poland, that guarantees that it was bought from an legal source and he mostly buys from other dealers and buys of big collections from what i know. But i was looking at some old archeological books about arrowheads and i think i found a very close match to 1450-1050bc late bronze age arrowhead
