<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Smojo, post: 2861778, member: 78058&quot;]Nice Idea @Curtismo</p><p>My main collecting focus is 1st Century Roman and Greek coins. I like a little of everything and don&#039;t tie my collecting to any one area.</p><p>I&#039;ve only been collecting ancients since around May/April 2016 about when I joined CT, but collected U.S &amp; world moderns for a couple of decades.</p><p>I come from a military family and a veteran myself, so I do favor military theme.</p><p>I love history as well as any war history and tend to favor historical battles. My collection doesn&#039;t really show or imply it. Like Mat I buy what I like that&#039;s in my budget at the time.</p><p>Trajan is one of my favorite emperors, and any Greek coin themed mythology, which covers a broad area itself.</p><p>I&#039;m also slowly working an empress sub.</p><p>I&#039;m 50 and by title &quot;structure mechanic&quot;, I build airplane componenents, wings, flaps, fuselage, ect., on a wide range of aircrafts.
