Historical Artifacts

Just a community for everyone to share artifacts, reconstructions, or replicas for the historically-inclined to admire!
Generally, an artifact should be 100+ years old, but this is a flexible requirement if you find something rare and suitably linked to an era of history, not a strict rule. Anything over 100 is fair game regardless of rarity.
Generally speaking, ruins should go to [email protected]

They sold for much less than I would expect.
That's crazy low, I'm a poor bastard and I would have paid more than that lol
That seems like it would practically just be the value of the silver alome
Coin collectors are very funny folks. Rarity is almost everything - you can get ten years' of 10th century Andalusan coins that are dirt cheap, and then one year of minting is insanely expensive just because only a few survived for one reason or another.
I definitely need to buy some of these square Mauryan coins if my finances ever stabilize though, they're insanely cool.
