<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Aidan_(), post: 2950403, member: 70832&quot;]At a coin club far far away...</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve been meaning to post this for quite some time. Now that I&#039;ve gotten some good coin pics I can! I did mention maybe once or twice how I started collecting ancient coins but not in detail or what the coins were. It started when I got curious about ancients and wandered down to the darkness of the ancients forum. A post here a post there but nothing serious. Then to my utter delight a PM by [USER=44132]@Bing[/USER] saying that he had some coins to give me. We both live in FL, not too far from each other actually, and we soon had a place and time to meet up. I offered to meet up at a coin club that I was an officer at (recording secretary). Lo and behold he showed up! We talked a little bit, he gave me four coins and he took off! (it was a surreal kinda moment) And the rest is history.</p><p><br /></p><p>A big thank you to [USER=44132]@Bing[/USER] if he didn&#039;t show up and encouraged me in my new found interest it would of taken longer for me to turn to the Dark Side.</p><p><br /></p><p>So here they are!</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]720587[/ATTACH]</p><p>Aurelian, with Vabalathus, Antioch mint</p><p>Obv: Radiate and cuirassed bust of Aurelian right; A below</p><p>Rev: Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Vaballathus right</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]720588[/ATTACH]</p><p>Constantine I</p><p>Obv: Helmeted, cuirassed bust right</p><p>Rev: Vexillum, seated captives on each side</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]720590[/ATTACH]</p><p>Crispus</p><p>Obv: Laureate head right</p><p>Rev: Wreath, VOT X within</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]720591[/ATTACH]</p><p>Valens</p><p>Obv: Diademed, draped and cuirassed bust right</p><p>Rev: Valens dragging captive right, holding labarum</p><p><br /></p><p>Bing, thank you for giving and for your service to this country.</p><p><br /></p><p>-Aidan[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
