Even with the handle 'makanudo'?

 

Makanudo is a reference to certain sport shoes model, not "macanudo" cigars.
Cheers

 

No, No one looked like I had pictured in my mind. The avatars are all you have to go on. I bet you all thought I looked like an old prospector huh?

 

Yes, I was a long hair:



And my bee:

 

A suitably Roman photo for the thread. Here's a selfie of me last year in Rome's "Aquaduct Park," along with Constantine and a worn-out Hercules in the lower right corner.

A selfie in Washington DC last week with A. Lincoln. I had no idea the National Mall was so big and had so much to offer. I walked 16 miles last Thursday between the monuments and museums, and 12 miles on Friday. By Saturday, I was glad to be sitting on the airplane and giving my feet a well-deserved rest.

Washington DC is beautiful. I enjoyed it a lot. Next time I'll make it a longer visit, except this trip was partially business and not pleasure...though I got a lot of tourism in during my spare time.

 

Nice to officially meet all of you! I'm glad this thread got resurrected.

Is that you in the Superman costume @Alegandron?

You are a dang good son @stevex6

So your talented AND you have great coin tastes huh @TIF?

Here is me with some friends at a zombie crawl the weekend before Halloween... very scary I'm on the right.

​

Seems like a lot of you have been to the Colleseum. Nice pictures from a great historical place. I will go a different route with a historical picture. Here is a picture of me at Masada in Israel taken by a friend with a much better camera than mine.



Don't worry there is a coin tie in! The site of Masada was one of the most important archeological sites in Israel for numismatist. It was here that a good number of silver coins from the Jewish revolt were uncovered in great condition after the site was rediscovered in the mid 20th century. These were the first silver Jewish coins and were minted during the revolt to pay the Temple tax after the Jews lost access to the Tyrian shekels accepted previously. Lots of these were overstruck on other types.


AR Shekel... (unfortunately not mine )

But this sweet new coin from @John Anthony is...


Oh, and I almost forgot to show off my "piece"

Yeah... so... let that be a warning to any burglars looking to burgle from the CSH Collection

 

Haha! Well, you are definitely safe from the Wicked Witch of the West!

 

85 cm of snow in one day!! (3ft)

Plus, Buster had a cone problem ... is there anything more pitiful lookin'?

Yah, this is how I will remember April 2017 ... worst month "ever"

... well, except for my sweet, sweet coin-additions!!



=> I hope that May kicks-arse!!

 

dang! deep snow.. and i don't think doge was impressed by the "toy in the cone" trick

 

LOL nope. that was a Superman guy protecting Hong Kong on one of my 5:30am walks!

 

I'm not much of a gun person, which is why my coin defense system is so underwhelming.



Still, that should hopefully be enough to deter people from touching my precious Gordian III without permission.

 

Okay that makes sense. I thought something like this was going on...

​

 

LOL

 

your eyes are those of a live hu

haha! having more guns than you can hold and fire @ one time is always a good deterent.

 

I'm not much to look at but here you go. I also uploaded a couple of pictures of a little project I'm working on.

 

I hope that fish isn't relata d to the guitar... I can't imagine the combination that would make.

 

You can tune a guitar but you can't tune a fish.
