Like Doug said, I like the siliquae but find them too expensive and, to be honest, a bit boring. But I do like your idea of beer and hookers....
I like that. "Hundreds of 'em". Yeah, the more I look and the more I see posted here and elsewhere, the more I realize this may just be a hobby...
You are the king of Hadrian coin collectors. I don't know where you find them all, but you keep posting coins I've never seen. Maybe there truly...

You're very welcome. Many of us enjoy attributing coins, so any others you may have or come across, bring 'em on.

Interesting coin Gil, but I haven't been able to locate a reference for it either. From the image it's hard to tell what is on the reverse, so...
Nice coins Red and all. I do not have the Parion type which means I will have to rectify that. But here is my Mysia, Kyzikos: [ATTACH]

Your Constantine is excellent. I looked up in Helvetica's page, and RIC 144 is listed with anywhere from 5-7 levels and she lists it as R4....
Very nice, MM. Very nice.
Which represents the truest color? Otherwise, they look about the same.
