    I got this neat FH yesterday in the mail. The style looks a lot like Lyons but it's Arles.

    Nice, top two pretty ruthless spearing straight in the face, great pick ups.

    Nice coin! I love a grisly barbarian coin death. I've wanted to start a thread of "Best Barbarian Deaths" or something for awhile... it may be time! ...maybe tonight if I can get the kids sleeping before I do!
