Congrats! I must've missed this post initially. The coin certainly caught my eye in your avatar, though! Now, here's what I'd like to know......
OK, now... WOW. That's what I'm talking' about!!! :nailbiting::snaphappy::woot: And back on the topic of these Miletos lions, I was always...
VK- is that a new avatar for you? I like it.
I've always thought these were neat, like a Fred Flintstone potrayal. (Well, OK, neater than that, but you get what I'm saying. I like the...
I'll grant that it's been a while since I read it, too, so I'm going by memory of my initial impressions at the time. Edit to add: apparently I'm...
Hey, @dadams- check this out. Found it in my old photos. I once owned your Vespasian, which means that somehow it went from @Aethelred to me,...
Great stuff all around. I could post "horsey" coins, but I don't think I have any ancient ones.
Love the Carthaginian pegasus. And the surfaces on the VRBS Roma.
My feelings exactly. LOL.

Hmm... so maybe my idiot's intuition about the elephant had some substance, after all.
@dougsmit- now that's totally cool. @David Atherton- I picked up Kenneth Harl's course "The Vikings", a set of audiobooks released by The Great...
I bought this cute little bronze from Gerhard Rohde on VCoins recently because I liked the portrait and the lion on it. I needed a <$25 ancient...
Looks neat. If it's fake, it's a good enough fake for me not to know any better. (Not that that's saying much.) The elephant is a bit...
Remind me to get an ice cream truck and drive it up and down the block in your neighborhood. Maybe somebody will decide to spend some other...
Huh. You're right. That is neat. I'm not sure how sustainable it is, economically, but if it did work out for them, one wonders what would...
Separate names with a comma.
