Ooh, yeah! Aooooh! Werewolves of London! :singing: That’s actually a welcome earworm to get stuck in my head about now, since it might dislodge...
That too!
That's a nice array of designs, some of which I hadn't seen before. If it weren't for so many other things to distract me, I could see myself...
Here's a breakdown of that long obverse legend, IMP TRAIANO AVG GER DAC P M TR P, which is chock full of Latin abbreviations. And here's a...
Latin. It's a Roman denarius of the emperor Trajan (98-117 AD). And a pretty nice one, too, despite the one scratch on his neck.
You've gotta hand it to Vespasian, though. He might've died of a fatal case of diarrhea, but the ol' guy still managed to go out with a measure...

A couple from my early 2000s PCGS Registry type set (20+ year old pics done on a flatbed scanner, back in the day). [IMG] [IMG] One that was...
Nope, not even that either, though golf is a big thing down here (and the resort company I work for caters mostly to golfers). I've played...
As if I owned an iron? LOL
BTW, I apologize if the creases in the folded letter make it a bit difficult to read in the photos. I should’ve tried to flatten ‘em out a little...
I confess I only just now got around to reading the QM’s 3-page manuscript excerpt in full (I was too focused on photographing it and posting it...
