9/4/2001 - "Mike - I just wanted to let you know I received the Lucius Verus and that it was better than I expected. The photo on the web didn't do it justice. 10/4/2001 - I looked at it for quite a while last night, and found it to be a delightful coin. Thanks!!! R. Pasini, U.S.A.

As you may have seen by now I have just paid via PayPal. I look forward to recieving the coin which besides being very nice is of course of great historical interest. It has been a pleasure doing business with you, and I will certainly be back. I think that the selection you have been offering lately is very remarkable, for example are your early Roman Republican coins fantastic.

Thank you Mike. The sestertius arrived today and I am very happy with it. Many thanks for the quick service. Your cheque is in the mail. Regards. B. Perry - Rep of Ireland 12th February 2004.

"Galeria arrived today, and lovely she is! This is the third I've bought from you. You certainly have an eye for this woman! regards," B Schaaf, U.K. 25/10/99.

Hi Mike,

The Henry I, BMC v, cut half penny arrived safe and sound - thanks.

It will make a good addition to my collection. I think that the first
letter after the ON: is a B, which might make it Bedford, with moneyer
NEELVS. No Henry I types i - vii are known from Bedford, but the mint was
active during William I and II.

Cheers,
Marshall of Great Falls, VA, USA. 3rd Ferbruary 2004.

"Mike, just to let you know - I received the two Roman bronzes in good order. They look great...I have no doubt you will be hearing from me again." J. Geehan, USA.

The two coins arrived today (Thursday, October 16 -2003)...they are wonderful and
actually better than what I expected! Kathy will love them. I have already
Xmas wrapped the coins and put them with her other (also wrapped) Xmas gift
- the complete DVD set of Simon Schama's A HISTORY OF BRITAIN. The wrapping
ensures I will not give them to her ahead of time.
Thank you again for the excellent service and wonderful quality. It is a
marvelous thing that something shipped from Great Britain gets to me in NY (USA)
faster than something shipped from California.
Cheers and Best Wishes,
S Garger.
