    :) It's nice to have a coin forum that is a bit more relaxed about humor and tangents. [coughForvmcoughCCF]

    Does anyone have that extremely rare Trajan sestertius with the bridge reverse? This would be the time to post it.

    Here's one of my favourites. I usually listen to 'that blasted music kids listen to these days' but there are always those old favourites that stick around despite whatever new fangled electronic music I listen too.

    Can't go wrong with some Billy Joel

    Is it just me, or does anyone else feel like making mixtape of all these incredible songs? Seriously, guys, this has been a great show of tunes and coins.

    The coin featured on the following album cover isn't mine, but some here may recognize it. With apologies to the owner...

    And here's the accompanying old 'show tune', just for Vlaha...
    "Billon Dollar Babies" by Alice Cooper.

    I was lucky enough to interview Alex Lifeson back in 1996. Smart, super-cool dude, and with his obvious great taste in music I wouldn't be surprised if he was a coin-collector too. :D
