I just received some miniature Macro lenses for my Galaxy S4. I thought I would test them on my new drachm. Apollonia Pontika, Thrace - Drachm 450-400 BC Obv: Facing Gorgoneion Rev: Upright Anchor, "A" and Crayfish 16mm 3.3 grams I particularly love the teeth
iamtiberius => Awesome lil' coin you've got there!! ... (oh, yours too, Ripley) I also have a scruffy ol' example (not nearly as sharp as your new piece):
I know why you like the teeth. I have been looking for a nice one of these. Yours would do nicely! Great pickup man, Kudos!
Greetings from Rome, guys. Love the coins. wish I could post mine, but I'll have to wait till I get home. Miss you guys.
Hey, it's roamin' Roman Bing!! => atsa matta for you, eh? ... (sorry Bing, but that's all the Italian that I know!!) Treat her like a Princess!!
You sure you don't know 'Una birra, per favore'? There are three things you have to know in another language. 1. Please and Thank You (this may just be a Canadian thing you never know with the Americans) 2. How to swear properly 3. How to order a beer. Everything else is null Also the coin is awesome I have wanted to get a Gorgon for a long time. Almost had one once but the trade fell through. Oh well.
So far, Rome is a killer. It's hotter than Hades and the crowds are enormous. Food is great, the beer is tolerable, the wine is scrumptious, the girls are beautiful, and the pickpockets are everywhere. Went to the National Museum of Rome today. WOW! the coin collection in the vault is absolutely beautiful. I'll never own even a fraction of these. Sorry to hijack this thread. I'll try to post elsewhere, but I had to reply to my ole pal Jerry.
