I like this idea for sure. Something that will generate good discussion and be like a reintroduction of sorts, especially with all of the newer members.
Sorry I didn't see this thread until now. Good threads can leave my radar so quickly it seems. Nice coins all. They are dripping with history & pleasant to view. I've probably purchased less than 10 ancient coins all year but plan to post 'em.
For those interested, here are my top 2014 coins: https://www.cointalk.com/threads/the-2014-coins-that-made-it-to-valiantknights-round-table.257516/
At least the OP has enough coins for a 10 top coins list. All my ancient coins put together only number 8.
Doesn't have to be a clean number like 10. Last year I couldn't really decide on just 10 so it ended up being 15 (I wasn't going for that amount that was just how many I considered to be favorites). You can choose all your 8 or just top 5 or something.
I am in it for number 4,3 and 2. Great choices and certainly great pick ups. You set the bar high for 2016. Continue with the upward momentum.
I know, right? Its gonna be tough, especially since I will start university next month, so less cash for coins.
Good luck at school, Dr. Jango (looking-back, my school years were definitely among my favourites!! => try hard, but not too hard) Cheers
Good luck at University! I can say from my current experience that it is certainly a balancing act between coins and books!
