    Happy birthday Bing! Since it's your day, let me learn something about you - why Bing, and Mr. Crosby as your avatar? (I ask because he is a relation of mine... You can see the resemblance in the picture the poster thread)

    Here's an Edward I I've had for a long time, but not sure if I've posted it before... It's a little beat up, but was one of my earlier purchases

    Best wishes to you Bing!!! I hope you have many, many more!!

    Well, I'll help you celebrate by tossing in another denomination I picked up of Nero's coins...a denarius to go along with my Tets, As and dupondius (Jeez, I feel like I'm talking 'dirty' LOL).

    Nero and Salus, 65/66 AD, Ric 60:

    I guess it's a birthday present for you on my Bday.

    It's a long story, but Steve and I used to be called the Jerry Lewis and Bing Crosby show on another forum. The name just stuck with me. For the longest time, Steve was referred to as Jerry, but it got confusing I think.
