    Sorry I went to bed before the rest of you but certainly the Clodius Albinus guess is correct. iamtiberius won this by a few minutes. This coin was on my favorites page so all you get here is a link:

    Perhaps if I say it often enough, one day it may be the correct answer.

  14. Correct. My hint probably gave too much away. Does anyone need to guess the mint or does it even matter? I don't know the rules.

    Okay, I must admit that I never thought that this moment would come, so I am a wee bit rattled ...

    Firstly, I'd like to thank all of the little people that made this moment possible for me ...

    ;)

    ... anyway ...

    So, I've randomly chosen one of my more worn-out examples, in hopes that it might somehow fool some/one of you ... oh, and then I made the photo as small as possible (yah, I'm throwin' out all of the stops!!) ... however, I'm fairly sure that somebody is gonna bat this baby right outta the park!!?

    Hi mods ... stevex6 here

    Ummm, is there any chance that we could have our thread's name altered to:

    "Ancients: Guess the Ruler"

    Then it can easily be distinguished from the modern coin guy's version ...
