    I was doing my "weights" heard doorbell. Lo and behold it was my nice mailman with a reg. letter from Leu Numismatics. So, I finished my workout, then opened letter, inside a AV Herennia Etruscilla Aureus, it looked even better in hand then sixbid photos. About same a NGC CH-MS 5/5 5/5:happy:

    I took photos myself, they are pretty crappy, or I am no good in that field. Now, you know why I use sixbid photos. IMG_1257.JPG IMG_1258.JPG

    Great coin @panzerman and you appear to be in very good shape - keep throwing those weights around. I used to do a lot of lifting back in the day.

    Thanks:) Yeah, I had to stop last Winter after I broke three fingers in that silly escapade (snow removal) last year. I definately could not use my left hand for holding any weights....
    Weather is really up and down, today its +8 cel. and pouring rain, last month (November) we had 90 cms of snow! My photos do not do justice to coin, looks way better, esp. thr reverse.

    You’re how old? 67? You should market a Panzerman Action Figure complete with landscaping accessories and buckets of ancient gold coins ;) I salute you, Sir for living such a clean and healthy life!

    I like your new gold Etruscilla , congrats Goldfinger.
    and I also like your german flamethrower or is it a bazooka ?

    Wonder who delivers your mail, the Pony Express :) , coin is from their October 27th auction.

    Also received a Leu coin this morning, its from their December 9th auction.
    Christmas present for walking our dog 3000 km in 2018.

    I also like your new style showing a coin, I tried to copy that:

    Andres2: Thanks, I am glad you like my photos/ I usually just use the sixbid images. It took some time for coin to arrive, but better late then never:happy: Oh, not 3000km! Between my adventures with my work/ plus walking the Rottie in Winter (when Im unemployed) I figure 13000km a year, I wear out two pairs of running shoes. Good aerobic workout. That Stihl "blower" is a a lot of fun, esp. when lots of leaves to blow.

    My uncles were the real panzermen, my line of work is safer, no one wants to shoot at me....I hope. And they were not paid, I on the otherhand get rewarded very well, and get a good workout for free. My only vice is food, I put back 5000+ calories a day;) The one thing I have never needed are "energy" drinks, I am burstin with getup and go naturally. Though on those 45 humidex Summer days, a cold Corona gives me a fresh booster.
    Happy Christmas! Deacon Ray!

    I saw a frame-off car, 98.7 points@ $145K. I almost was tempted to sell a few of my coins to get it....I just could not do it. Instead, I will work hard next year, save up and get one. I can always trade in my new one, a 2016 Convertible + cash to get the 67 big block.:) Plus sell more bugs to make spare $$$.
