"Roman Coins and Roman Monuments"

Hello to the group. I recently posted to Youtube this video on Roman coins. I make no money from this video. I make them for the love of the hobby and the history they represent. Here is the link if you would like to watch. Thanks.

Wow, did you take any of those pictures yourself?

The white font makes it a little difficult to read at times.

 

Thanks. Yeah, sorry about the white font. I should have changed colors. Glad you liked it.

 

Thanks for sharing Gary, absolutely brilliant, I enjoyed the whole 34 minutes.
What a fantastic job of producing it, congratulations.

 

Thank you. Glad you liked it. It was fun to put together.

 

Are any of those coins yours?

 

Really wonderful @Gary R. Wilson You should definitely create more when the creative urge hits. Like @Nicholas Molinari mentioned maybe just add a black outline to the white font and you’re golden. Look forward to the next one.

 

The Antoninus Pius Column sestertius is mine. The rest are just off of the net.

 

Thanks. I just posted one about Ancient Rome-Then and Now. I'll post the link on a new thread.

 

68 seconds into it and i KNEW you'd like it AA ^^..as did i too kool vid @Gary R. Wilson, thanks for sharing

 

I was reluctant at first, but you managed to do a clean, simple and visually attractive video. Great job!

 

Thanks. I appreciate the comment.

 

Very well done - you've included many graphics I have never seen before (and I've spent the past years scouring the Internet for Roman architecture images). Bravo!

 

Thank you. This video did take some time to put together. It seems every time I look for images on the net I see ones I haven't seen before.

 

Very nice - thanks for sharing Gary.

 

Thanks for watching.

 

Great video! Thank you for sharing!

A friendly suggestion:
34 minutes is a lot to watch in one sitting. I'd suggest choosing a particular temple or topic and exploring all of the visuals for just that one temple or monument (historical reconstructions, coin photos, ruin photos, maps, etc.) and keeping the video to 3-5 minutes per topic. So you may have the video titled something like: Roman Coins and Monuments - Chapter 1: The Temple of Augustus. This way you could have a series of 10 videos, each a more convenient viewing experience.

Anyway, just a suggestion from those of us with very short attention spans due to modern technology.

Thanks again for sharing. As they are, your videos are really great!
