The shame is that without the double, the clarity would be exceptional.
To me, this is the most useful of your posts. I am embarassed in my lack of Nabataeans (I have one) but when I see them, I usually see their...
We have a lot of coins of Max between us. Out of curiosity, I went to vCoins and saw over 800 coins offered. Most were his but there were a few...
