@JBGood

Some warning would have been nice.

BTW these coins are awesome!

 

Regardless of actual value, the last post (Theodosius) jumps at me and 'talks to me' the most...and all are phenomenal JB!!

 

CONGRATS!!! (sincerely)

 

Those are great! Nice job...

 

No Mikey... No... You cannot have it.

 

Gosh, coins this pretty....I am starting to become more interested in Byzantine coinage! Nice coins @JBGood

 

Ancientnoob can you share what coin will be used as the cover photo? I'd love to get a preview.

Congratulations! That's something to be proud of!

 

Nice! How did that come about?

 

One of the Scholarly folks from Oxford in the UK had spotted the image here on CT and contacted me with an image release form. I had TIF give me a hand placing the image on a white background which I totally appreciated, but opted to shoot the photo again and provide several versions of the image.
Unfortunately I am at work and dont have access to all my images but this is the image that drew in the author and publisher.

 

NICE! Noobster! That will be cool to see!

 

I warned them that this is not the best example in the world nor the best picture in the world, they were unphased by that comment.

 

@Ancientnoob Perhaps a cow-themed publication... Or maybe Dolphin carpets... Or, just maybe a play on the Greek letters of Goo.
