About Pieces of the Past
Who we are
Pieces of the Past is run by Bobby Dobbs in Moore, Oklahoma. Bobby has bought and sold coins for years, and has sold to collectors across the country on eBay as Key_Dates.
Ancient coins are our specialty: the silver and gold of the Greek city-states, Alexander the Great and the kings who followed him, the Persian Empire, and Rome from the Caesars on. Each one was struck by hand some two thousand years ago or more and passed through countless hands to reach yours.
By trade, Bobby is a licensed private investigator. Checking facts and proving where things came from is his day job, and he brings the same care to every coin he sells.
