I like 'em all. I'm a Capricorn, so you know I approve of that one. (I had to add the Vespasian posthumous capricorn denarius in my Eclectic Box...
Sorry, but what is Steve's "battle" you speak of? I knew he wasn't around anymore, but have been pretty much oblivious otherwise.
Maybe not when you're the one wielding it! ;) My luck, I'd put a big gouge on the endroll coin, and it would turn out to be a 1914-D or an SVDB....
This topic has exceeded my IQ. I'll go post something goofy elsewhere.
Happy Hanukkah. Had me goin' for a sec. I thought it was some kind of Israeli medal!
PS- me too, but I'd be very wary of those talons and beaks! I believe the species here is Bubo umbrellinsis, the Lesser North American Umbrella...

I have two of the little Jansjo LED lamps. They're compact and really great. PS- this was the one that just happened to come up at the top of my...
Those were my thoughts exactly. Kinda puts my giveaways to shame.
Neat. And Happy birthday. I'm a December baby myself. Im a bit concerned by the small screwdriver in the CRH photo, though. What's that for?
Too late. I totally did. Hi, Hook. Meet Line and Sinker. I suppose I have become desensitized to absurdity after x-number of newb "error...
No, it should be fine. It's not as if you left it wet. Just make sure it's rinsed well and dry. The only potential issue is if some ingredient...
Wow, that's a nice one! It blows away the one I had in my original Roman collection. [IMG]
Oh, and here is one with an anchor that I forgot about, if anyone prefers that theme. [IMG]
Anchors are a cool theme, but I lack photography of any of my coins with them, so I'm going with the "something where the date isn't strictly...
That's an awesome set of photos. Nice coin too, of course, but those images really make it leap off the screen.
