Ancients => okay fine, I bought one of those dragon-esque coins (hey, don't judge me, Wagoneers)

I'm not having any trouble.

"anyone know what the different letters in the left and right reverse fields mean??"

Well, in my coin's case, the "B&G" represent "Bernabo & Galeazzo II Visconti" ...

 

What is that coin with the knight and horse called in post #8? Very nice!

Thank you stevex6. I ran a quick search and found only sold coins. Must not be many out there.

 

I can't either. Blocked due to my ISP location or other reason? Happens to me frequently.

 

TIF => do you live in Northern Manitoba!!?



... hey, we have new icon-thingies (but I no longer have "quote" ability?)

 

Quoting is intact. Not sure why I suddenly have a garish 'supporter' banner under my avi. I vaguely recall making a small donation to CT but that was quite a while ago.

 

I don't understand that either. I made a small donation to CT last month by PayPal but received no acknowledgement of it and apparently do not qualify for the banner.

 

Now I see that I gained the banner after I made the above post BUT I lost the ability to edit my post (clicking on the edit button gets no reaction out of the software). I assume the CT Forum software has recently suffered an update. I also assume that someone in the loop is aware of the problems.

I might add that this has been a bad week for software for me. I made great use out of a feature of Google Chrome that went away this week. Now all secondary tabs come up with a search engine but no longer have the old most visited buttons and I can't find the controls to change it back. This all started with the Windows targeted advertising so I assume (there is that word again) the situation is related. Microsoft dropped support of Windows XP last week. The schools I volunteer for have hundreds of XP computers so we are looking at what comes next. I now understand why some people hate MS.

 

Love these coins!

 

Very cool coins and type!

 

Thanks for the coin-compliments, gang!! (it'a always nice getting feedback)

 

For the record => sweet => this is the first time that I "love" everything that was upgraded ...

=> bravo IT guy, bravo!!
