Neat looking (if frowny) coins. This denarius might be the only Caracalla I've owned, from my old 2007-08 collection. All I have of it is this...
Here's my Chichester Conder, which was a relatively recent purchase. They could be habit-forming, if one isn't careful. Great Britain...
As I type this, I'm working on my next Eclectic Box update post, which will be the first since February. That collection stood at 47 pieces as...
Speaking of nice affordable Jeffies, that 1965 SMS I posted above cost me 15 bucks. It's PCGS SP67. Priceguide is presently $24 on it. The...
Interesting. Makes more sense as a female name than a male name, though I suppose the latter wasn't totally impossible. Neat. So a woman in the...
I don't know anything about the Curtis Clay angle, but wow, that Macrinus is an absolute stunner! The pix deserve to be posted in full-sized...
Thanks. Modest grade, but neat grey CircCam toning. Which comes as no surprise, since I bought it from @CircCam. It's too dark for some folks....
Here are some of my US newps from the past few months, not counting stuff I bought for the giveaways and/or swapstock to flip. [IMG] [IMG] [IMG]...

Here's one of me and ladymarcovan from a few days ago. We went out to Jekyll Island to eat at the place where our daughter works. [ATTACH]...

Looks like it could indeed be an SMS coin, but I'm not savvy enough with moderns to be able to confirm that. Welcome, BTW.
I do wear a 3X (or even a 4X), as it happens. But that's got more to do with the enormous gut than the heart.
This is USS Cyrene in the photo below, but it was a Type C1-A ship like the Cape Constantine. So this is what the ship in question would have...
So I guess it's been confirmed that this particular Orla was definitely a man, then?
Love it when these things evolve. I've gotten all caught up in this now. Y'all might remember the last time I had one of these kind of quests.
Good work, y'all. These mysteries seem to solve up nicer when several minds are at the task.
I wondered if "Orla" could also be a man's name. That would be an interesting twist. But the only person with that name I've heard of before is...
No doubt. Rabbit holes like this are tremendously fun to burrow down into. Who will be the first to find a photo of Orla N. Beebe? Or the SS...
Wow! But this sort of changes the picture of Orla as a civilian passenger, maybe? This would have put her in the thick of it. So we're back to...
Separate names with a comma.
