It looks like I missed out on a great tradition! I’ll definitely participate (God willing) next year if Secret Saturnalia is offered again. Anyway, I purchased my own gift as a consolation. After all, how many Herod the Great coins is too many? Wishing you all many blessings and a safe holiday!
That's a great-looking coin, and I think the background works really well, considering your coining angle.
That's a cool picture Deacon and a very nice coin to boot! I also missed out on the Secret Saturnalia this year being as I am relatively new here and didn't know CT did one. Very cool though and I will have all year to pick out what to gift for next year. Hope you all have a pleasant Christmas Eve. Don't stay up too late or Santa won't bring you any coins
@Deacon Ray That is a very nice shot. I hope that you will participate next year, it is a lot of fun.
PS- on a less serious note- the obverse of that coin was prophetic about the future of the region. It looks like a modern military helmet with an AK-47 underneath it.
That is an awesome coin, Deacon Ray! I have it on my wish list for 2017 and really hope that, by some miracle, I'll be able to afford it. Have a Blessed Christmas!! Erin
