Wait... were those ostraca in your picture in the OP all along? I initially viewed this thread on my phone, so I must've overlooked them if they...

I bet I know whose it is. ;) (And no, not mine, either!)
Wow, as always.
I like the horsey hemidrachm! Though the ancient portion of my "Box of 20" is tiny, I have that Septimius Severus type. While mine is a nice...

I bought this book, and would give it higher marks than you did, since I found it pretty comprehensive for a "beginner's" guide, and neither...
