    These forums are supposed to help share knowledge of ancient coins, not to make unimportant arguments about SS "not having a beard." Maybe you don't know how to work cointalk, or how to tell when a man has a beard on a coin, but there is definitely a beard on SS. No need to argue with everyone about this fact, you are free to have your own opinion.

    To Charles1997. You may be an Active Member, but that doesn't give you the right to tell people what they can, or can't do (you may not even be right all the time !).
    One man's meat is another man's poison, and what you consider unimportant is your own opinion, which I may choose not to share.

    Thank you! I was looking through woodwinds and thought that one may have been it, there were a few similar ones, but wasn’t sure!

    Some people, whether they know little, or much, about numismatics, are actually very rude !!!

    Stop this line of insults. We do not function like this. This is a learning forum, not a twitter page. It doesn't matter what a member thinks they have a right to do or say, it is what the rules and the administration say. Read them. Thanks, Jim
