Nope, thats it for these two. I am a 1 per emperor/empress collector. Though in time I would like the bust type you have of hadrian. Just in no rush.
Sorry A-Dawg, but this is totally off-topic (lack of computer skilz) I must have clicked something, because now on the R.H.Side I get 1/3 of the screen describing "Ads" and/or "Support CoinTalk" ..... ummm, how do I get rid of this and back to full-size screen (I've tried everything, including calling my slightly higher-tech wife to figure it out ... which ended-up causing a fight, because she noticed that everybody thinks my coins are so nice and therefore I must be spending way too much money, etc, etc) ... lonely sleep tonight!! => can anybody please tell me what I can do to get back to my normal settings, without the 1/3 screen bit? Sorry ... if I was at work, I'd call 'Jimmy-IT" to come fix it for me ... man, I hate being a dinosaur!! Thanks
