    Ay, Chihuahua! :greedy:

    (On an unrelated topic, I just saw @Sallent's new signature and ROFL-ed. I did not, however, ROFL when just such a creature as that leapt off the wall at me a short time ago. Too bad it wasn't a Gordian III ant. You may throw those at me if you wish.)

    TIF Always learning.

    @Barry Murphy, what is the top row middle coin? Also, do you know and can you share data about the percentage of NGC Ancient slabbed coins submitted by Heritage versus by everyone else, or by dealers in general versus private collectors? Just curious.

    These are the kinds of coins that, after fondling them raw for a good while, I would get certified just to protect them (and increase their salability in this side of the pond). The Popmey portrait in absolutely stellar!
