a well-intentioned tip :
As you may know, most banks steal from their clients. They charge insanely high fees for very simple digital transactions. I think clients should not accept this. PayPal also charges unreasonably high costs, usually around 5% of the purchase amount for intercontinental transactions, regardless of the amount. For larger amounts, this also results in insanely high costs. That is why I would advise you to pay with WISE (https://wise.com). This is simple and cheap. It will save you money, which is better spent on coins.

We also offer many more coins  in our regular richly illustrated pricelists. You can receive it by filling out the order form.

We hope you will enjoy viewing our website and we hope you will find something of your interest.

SEPTIMIUS SEVERUS, 193-211 - CAPPADOCIA, CAESAREA - AR Drachm, year 16 (208 AD)

weight 3,07gr. ; silver Ø 18mm.

rev. Mount Archaeus with crater and trees, star on top,

Caesarea (modern Kayseri in Turkey) was originally called Mazaka or Mazaca (according to Armenian tradition, it was founded by and named after Mishak) and was known as such to Strabo, during whose time it was the capital of the Roman province of Cilicia, known also as Eusebia at the Argaeus, after Ariarathes V Eusebes, King of Cappadocia (163–130 BC). The name was changed again by Archelaus, last King of Cappadocia (36 BC–14 AD) and a Roman vassal, to "Caesarea in Cappadocia" (to distinguish it from other cities with the name Caesarea in the Roman Empire) in honour of Caesar Augustus, upon his death in 14 AD. When the Muslim Arabs arrived, they adapted the pronunciation to their writing resulting in Kaisariyah (note that letter C in classical Latin was pronounced K), and this eventually became Kayseri when the Seljuk Turks took control of the city in circa 1080, remaining as such ever since. The city stood on a low spur on the north side of Mount Argaeus (modern Mount Erciyes), a vulcano with the height of nearly 4.000 meter.

Seems to be unpublished in the important reference literature.
Extremely rare.

AUGUSTUS, 27 BC-14 AD - MARCUS SANQUINIUS, triumvir monetalis - AR Denarius, Rome (17 BC)

weight 3,66gr. ; silver Ø 18mm.

obv. Bare head of Augustus right, surrounded by the legend;
AVGVSTVS DIVI F
rev. Youthful laurated head of Genius Saeculari Nivo right,
with features resembling Augustus, four-rayed comet with tail above,
surrounded by the legend; M.SANQVINIVS.III.VIR

struck in name of the triumvir monetalis Marcus Sanquinius

This type is minted in commemoration of the Ludi Saeculares (the Secular Games) celebrated by Augustus in 17 BC to mark the commencement of a ′New Age′ inaugurated by the Devine Julius and now brought to fruition by his heir. The youthful head on the reverse has usually been interpreted as that of a rejuvenated Caesar, on the evidence of the comet (′sidus Julium′) which surmounts the portrait. However, there is clearly no resemblance to the late dictator and it seems more satisfactory to regard it as a personification of the ′New Age′ itself, endowed, like so many of the devine images of Augustus′ reign, with the features of the emperor.

Sidus Iulium ("Julian Star" or Caesar′s Comet) was the Great Comet of 44 BC; numerical designation  was a seven-day cometary outburst seen in July 44 BC. It was interpreted by Romans as a sign of the deification of recently assassinated dictator, Julius Caesar (100–44 BC). It was perhaps the most famous comet of antiquity. The Comet became a powerful symbol in the political propaganda that launched the career of Caesar′s great-nephew (and adoptive son) Augustus. The Temple of Divus Iulius (Temple of the Deified Julius) was built (42 BC) and dedicated (29 BC) by Augustus for purposes of fostering a "cult of the comet". (It was also known as the "Temple of the Comet Star". At the back of the temple a huge image of Caesar was erected and, according to Ovid, a flaming comet was affixed to its forehead, samelike as shown on this denarius. Very rare.

ZUIDELIJKE NEDERLANDEN (SOUTHERN NETHERLANDS) - HERTOGDOM BRABANT - PHILIPS II, 1555-1598 - 1/5 Philipsdaalder 15(..), Antwerpen

Dominus Mihi Adiutor; ″the Lord is my helper″ 
was the motto of the firm  (catholic) believer Philips II

Met een officieel voorgeschreven gewicht van 6,86 gram is deze munt duidelijk veel te licht. Dit gewichtsverlies is veroorzaakt door het snoeien van de munt, zoals ook goed te zien is. Als men bij vele munten steeds wat van de rand snoeide kon men toch aanzienlijk bijverdienen, soms wel honderden guldens. Natuurlijk was het wel zaak de munten in betaling te geven aan personen die het gewicht niet meteen konden controleren, anders zou men immers tegen de lamp lopen. Degene die met te lichte munten betaalde moest in principe het gewichtsverschil alsnog bijbetalen, maar dat gold alleen voor munten met geringe gewichtsafwijking. Was het verschil te groot, dan werden de stukken onmiddellijk uit omloop gehaald. Werd men betrapt op het snoeien van munten dan waren de straffen niet gering. Met verminking (o.a. brandmerking) kwam men er nog heel goed vanaf. Het verbranden of koken in een ketel met water, olie of lood en andere gruwelijke doodstraffen waren de gebruikelijke eindstations voor serieuze overtreders.
