    Very nice coins... SUPER job tearing up the credit card @4to2centBC !

    Of course I like the AV Aureus, the Caesar, the Makedonwn... but I am also intrigued with your Byblos and Ionia coins!

    Yours is a gorgeous Seljuq...Here is my Seljuq:

    Great indeed. Like someone trying to sum up all ancient History in only 10 precious coins. Fantastically achieved.

    If you're only going to purchase 10 coins a year make sure they are as stunning as these. Well done!

    NIce coins - quality over quantity.
    The Tiberius aureus and the Cromwell halfcrown are my favourites. I’ve always wanted a Cromwell halfcrown or Crown. The trouble is, there’s so many fakes. I do bid on these occasionally. One day.

    I’ve also only bought about ten coins this year - mostly high end stuff! I’m probably going to do the same next year - maybe 5 new ultra-rare rulers and 5 upgrades to aurei.

    That was the year before. However, with the new season of Vikings on TV, it seems as if I bought it yesterday.

    I have gotten lazier, as the years have passed. That composite screen shot is the most you will get from me this month. Plus I'm head down, closing a quarter, so I can pay off that Tiberius and the "charity tax" I put on every purchase.

    Fortuately I see nothing in Triton that tempts me..........yet.
