@Bing - it is good to have someone who knows you! My wife bought me a warm jacket so I will not freeze next month at the NYINC! I do not have...
Nice piece, I like the high relief hoof / leg. How do you know it is a horse vs another animal? If you boil down your collecting year, this is the...
Nice #2. I like your mini Noah's Ark coin. I like coins with a bit more than the original strike: counter-stamped, brockage, over-struck, ... I...

Super coins!
@Theodosius , yes it is RR, here is mine. I bought this one from a Pegasi auction in 2006. Not sure if it is in your pics otherwise, so here it...

Any luck yet? The lion head looks a lot like one on a Litra from Bruttium, but I saw no fish reverses from this area. I did see several bronze...
Unfortunately, mine is Probus, not RR. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
@Jdiablo30 I ran across something advertised as a Roman plumb bob in an auction a couple of years ago. I bought it because it looked interesting...
I agree, it is cool to hold ancient coins, and not too bad for the coins. I like big bronze - [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
