Great stuff @Shrews1994 ! Also super cool of @Randy Abercrombie ! If you want to try to identify your ancient, I suggest you look through here: http://www.wildwinds.com/coins/ric/maximianus/t.html If you need more help, let me know. I'm still learning about ancients but they are super fun.
Wow! That's a great collection he sent you! What a generous guy I love the lamination error at the top of the obverse of the 44D war nickel and the roman bronze.
I like seeing and hearing of stuff like this! I started out at my club not knowing anyone and a few people would come over to me and start up a convo and end up giving me some things. Nothing of crazy importance but it was still something and it got me started. It's one of the ways we should give back and in the end we should do the same when we get to the point where we are seasoned collectors. Kudos to you Abercrombie.
Shrews’ zeal and enthusiasm for this hobby reminded me of myself once upon a time. Does my old heart good to see her enjoying them.
