I believe I conflated the types; the one I was referring to is Sear 1977/RIC 214. I can't remember where the experimental reference came from;...
Is that the small diameter, possibly experimental issue?
I'm so glad that your coin arrived safely! I really like it! It seems to be a coin arrival day. Mine was only 2 3/4 weeks, but DHL via Deutsche...
There's a happy ending! Sooo, it looks like DHL outsources at least some of their packages to German Post. Slow, but that's a much better (for...
It's almost Faustina and (Pizza) Friday! TGIFF!
Was the helmet which Eucratides wore kind of akin to the British WWI helmet?
:cool::cool:I must say, 20 Euros isn't too terrible. I should start a thread asking what is normal to pay for DHL/Fed Ex. I avoid the private...

Wait a second, they used post?! Mood changes to pensive. And I had to go through Byzantine means to find a DHL cutoff man, grrr. I don't...
Oh, and another thing, the vcoins listings of theirs may or may not be up to date, case by case. Use their website. The tiny problem; it's...
Ah, thank you! I had always wondered. It's a rather distinctive name, both first and last. I have nothing but good things to say about the...
If I can get a halfway decent picture, could you ID my owl, robinjojo? I think it's one of the 450-400 kinds. I'm trying to solve a PC mini...

:wideyed: While I find the period very interesting, I'm a large module coin lover and even the tiny AE4's are hideously expensive for the cool...
