I’ve been listening to «Althea» by Grateful Dead lately. Also a relevant song for a coin collecting bachelor....
This is an interesting topic to collect. Nice posts and coins! Here are two drachma from Bruttium during their stint with the Carthaganians....
Every time I see a portrait of Diadumenian, I think about how sad it is that children were put in this position. Lovely coin, though....
[ATTACH] I’m happier with one coin like this one, than with 25 of the ebay kind. But here we differ, and you have to define how you want to...
