    Very nice set, but are you asking us for help identifying them, or is it a quiz? They're pretty easy...

    They are nice looking coins, but they are all very easily identified and attributed.

    Ummm, I think the dude wants us to post our interesting reverses?

    ... sadly, the topic is a bit too general (I could post "all" of my reverses!!)

    ;)


    I'm about to go to a diaper party!! (no, i'm not gonna wear a big diaper ... I have to give a new dad a box of diapers, and then we sit around a nd drink ... this is apparently a new ritual while the new mother is at her baby shower) ...

    ... so chances are fairly good, that I'm gonna be gunned when we talk next!! (*yikes*)

    :eek:

    I think you should wear the diaper too that way you won't have to take pee breaks from drinkin'

    Nope, I dodged a bullet ... things were heading that way, but I managed to tear myself away from the festivities and meander home to safety (my wife was glad to see me home => safe and sound and "diaperless")

    wyvern => I love all of your reverses, especially the reverse with the two lil' kids on the throne (that is what it is showing, isn't it?)

    That particular coin is:
    RIC 711 Faustina II Denarius. FAVSTINA AVGVSTA, bare-headed, draped bust right / SAECVLI FELICIT, throne (Pulvinar) upon which sits Commodus and Antoninus.
