The chicken / snake legged deity is Abraxas (though technically Abrasax, as it's been mis-translated over the centuries). He is a deity...
Like previous years, I can't help myself, so when my SS gift arrived, I opened it. Inside was a card and a small miniature Santa bag, at least...
I never wait. As much as I try, every year it gets opened early. I got so much going on around Christmas time, I always find the CT SS gift to...
Alright, I have no will power. Here is a picture of what I got. The 96W dime has eluded me for some time, pretty cool to finally have it, in a...
Received my gift today (that was fast!). Doubt I'll wait until Christmas to open it. lol
Secret Santa, always enjoy what comes about this annual activity! :D Will once again join in!

Looking at other pics online, I am kind of leaning towards Constantius Gallus.
Picked this up and the only thing written on the 2x2 was "roman coin". Been searching online for some time with no luck. Any help would be...
Filling some holes in a folder with some "junk" dimes I've been buying for the past year. I came across this dime and the 3 has a weird line...
