    OK, let me go to my desk where I’ve got a proper keyboard and mouse, and we’ll fire up the random number generator and see who gets that metaphorical chicken dinner.

    So now it's time for the drawing for...

    Round 11 (the Roman provincial coin of Antioch on Orontes, 138-161 AD).

    Our lucky number was... 380.

    And Post #380 was by... @BuffaloHunter ... on behalf of @Noah Worke!
    Congratulations, @Noah Worke ! And good on you, @BuffaloHunter ! You've won twice here, each time for other folks! I predict good karma for you. :)

    @Noah Worke - I reckon I have your address, since I just shipped you some stuff earlier.

    Please be sure to let us know later when you receive the prize, so I can update the summary in Post #1.

    Since you just won Round 11, this puts you out of Round 12 unless you're entering on someone else's behalf.

    So now we come to our final round in this contest...

    ROUND 12.

    The prize for this round is a...

    [​IMG]

    Obverse: turreted head of Tyche (Fortuna) right, wearing mural crown.
    Reverse: Athena standing left on prow of galley; club and monogram above.

    Bronze, 17.3 mm, 3.91 g. Struck ca. 242-166 BC at Arados in Phoenicia (now Arwad in modern Syria).

    Ex- Biga Numismatics (formerly Alibaba Coins), Netherlands, 13 May 2020. They attributed this as Duyrat-1365.

    To enter this round, all you need to do is:

    1. Say that you want it, and
    2. A word or two about why you want it or what you like about it.

    Then, sometime after 24 hours have elapsed, we'll do the drawing.

    I'll make sure my grandson knows just how old it is. And also teach him that I'm actually NOT the oldest person/thing there is.

    Yeehaw! Thanks to @lordmarcovan and @BuffaloHunter and everyone else! This is a record year for my ancient collection for sure! Also, I want that for @Rushmore so she can get her first ancient. Nothing like it!
