OH! Okay, I get it now, thanks! Sorry for being slow on the uptake on this one. I haven't had a TV in about 7 years though so I'm a little out...
I think you're on the right track here. Unlike many other religions promoted on or alluded to on ancient coins, Christianity is still practiced...
I don't have much of an opinion of the man since I haven't put much time into reading about his reign. I'll take his coins though :) [IMG]...
Sallent-- we tease you about it because you keep bringing it up. If you really want everyone to stop, the best thing would be to simply stop...
Well then, Doug-- sounds like you should get that book! It's always fun to see coins you own in their literary habitat :)
What an excellent idea! Can I do it too? Z-- enter me, and if I win, send it to Fitzy!
I still don't get it and I want to understand the joke/reference :(:oops: What does a South Park LOL towel (whatever that is) have to do with...
I'm afraid I don't understand this :oops: Can you interpret it for me? :shy: :D I don't get too worked up during auctions (used to though)....
I eagerly await the new listings in your Vcoins store :D Or are they already there? I'd better take a look...

Thanks for that review, Carausius. I don't have Geissen and was wondering if I should. Sounds like a yes, so I'll have to keep an eye out for a set.
Fingers crossed for you! :) I don't recall any where my high bid tied an earlier bid, but I do recall a few instances of my Sixbid or Numisbid...
@dougsmit: Huh. Guess I'm not all that observant. I have a couple of obols with "flipped" flans. [IMG] EGYPT, Alexandria. Domitian AE obol,...
It's fabulous :)
Just to clarify something: Zumbly and I co-wrote the OP. The editorial comments signed "--Z" are his words, not me trying to be funny :) The...
Given the curved sides, "waist" at the bottom, and foot I'd call it a vase. Modiuses (modii?) seem to have straight sides. As you probably know,...
I just now got that joke :oops:. Good one :D
Yes-- it lessened the risk. I think we both went into it assuming there would be many duplicates and we knew most would be low quality. The...
Separate names with a comma.
