:D Thanks, Pish! It's definitely an all-around hefty coin at 95 gm. 45 mm in diameter but "only" 8 mm thick. [IMG] ZEUGITANA, Carthage early...
:D I have to show mine again because I love it so much :) [IMG] BRUTTIUM, the Brettii 216-214 BCE Æ quartuncia, 13.5mm, 2.06 g Obv: head of...
This is when having my coins in trays would be handy. I'll have to sift through the boxes to find some others with high thickness to diameter...
Oh, whoops :oops:... and I even (briefly) read the description!
Both are very nice. The Artemis portrait is lovely-- she looks like a modern woman. At first glance I mistook her quiver for a pony tail :D.
Sometimes I take dozens of shots per side just to get a good one! There are so many variables-- lighting, shutter speed, etc. Sometimes I can...

Interesting.

Wow, Z. That was your third choice? I think it would rank first choice on almost anyone's list!
Welcome, Nick!
I don't recall seeing that reverse before. What an interesting LRB!
Thanks for that reference! I saw the example on Wildwinds but didn't know which auction it came from :) I will note the dibs in my records :D
Four months since your last coin? Oh how sad :(. At least you are retaining your King of Tessera crown. I have only one tessera, undoubtedly...
I think Zumbly is correct. On the OP coin I think the forelegs are visible and they indicate a right-facing bull or MFB.
Hmm, I can't make out anything on the reverse. If you think it is MFB, try looking through each city listed on...
Holy ham hocks, Batman! Sow-on-prow is awesome :D. Yep, that would be a wonderful addition to the Pink Floyd Animals set. Jealous :) M&M...
Thanks :) "WWSD" (What Would Steve Do)... post the coin! :D
