I have. I haven't spent money on a coin since the FUN show, so that is over a month now. No wait, I bought something at CNG about Jan 21st, so I...
Lol, he has had this collection for many years before you had even heard of the Nabateans. I did direct him to your site. :)
He owns them. Its a side little set for him, not a main interest. He is good friends with one of our most important members, the one who passes...
A few months ago I put together a presentation for my coin club on Anonymous Bronzes. I posted a link on another thread, but thought I would post...
