    AE PRUTAH OF ALEXANDER JANNAEUS, 103-76 BC
    O: Anchor with Greek Legend. R: Stellate pattern with Paleo-Hebrew inscription. 2.1 g, 15 mm.

    one of these has been on my list for quite some time. for the type, this is going rate.

    if you stopped listening to david bowie albums after 80's, that is a mistake you should rectify.

    sorry ... man, I can't seem to get enough of this band lately (I'm sure that it'll wear off soon enough)

    Probably a bit like Baby Metal syndrome, eh?

    My newest Spanish medieval coin

    Sancho IV El Bravo AR Coronado.jpg
    Sancho IV El Bravo
    1284-1295 CE
    AR Cornado
    Seville Mint

    And here is a little bit of traditional Spanish folk music and dance from a Spanish movie to get your blood rushing and bring out your inner Spanish.

    Wow, that's very cool ... I must admit that I had look-up Mark Evans (and as you know => you were correct) ... thanks for the tidbit of ACDC trivia

    Yah, I like a whole of different bands and types of music, but I always seem to drift-back to ACDC (sure, they may not be a relax on the beach type of band ... but they always bring that "are you ready to go?!!" attitude which gets me in the party mood)

    :rolleyes:

    I certainly was a great concert ... it was cool because of the Olympic coverage being put on hold for all the Canadians to get their fix!!

    I saw them 20 years ago in Winnipeg (outdoor concert at The Assiniboine Downs ... horse racing track)

    Tragically Hip and Sherly Crow ... awesome show as well

    :D That was fun! I clicked over to YouTube to view it and watched their cover of Comfortably Numb too-- fabulous! Very interesting treatment of Gilmour's solos.
