Q

 

Great coins Smojo!

 

Thanks all for the kind replies.
I will try to get a post on some that maybe should have made the list but didn't.
I am fixing to get buried at work. For what ever reason they think we have to work 5-10's and 2-8's for the next 2 weeks before Christmas break.
It seems a week ago we were 2 ship sets ahead of schedule and now suddenly they tell us we are 3 ship sets behind.
I will still be lurking and will add a few replies when I can

 

Well done, a great selection. I really like the Julia Domna. As you say, everyone loves a Julia. Look forward to seeing your empress collection sometime.

 

It's a work in Progress and was meant to take a while.
Some of the ladies are quite scarce and cost a pretty nickel.

 

Some great examples @Smojo! The Korykos is probably my favorite of the bunch

 

The best ones always do - part of the joys of collecting

 

This is true.
I thought I was done buying for the year , but I saw a coin on my want list in an auction and put in a win able bid. Now it's the wait to see if it was good enough.

 

I absolutely love that one as well.
My only regret is I couldn't offer red spork more for it, my budget has been tight this year and I'm thankful he took my offer that added it to my collection.
Yes I said that, I will never say again that I wished I could have paid more for a coin

 

I agree with all the above! You had some great coin additions for 2017! I would say 45 new ancient coins is pretty darn good in anyone's collection. You sure beat me....I ONLY added 17 new ancients 45-17 is a blowout.
