Please consider ALL &#039;liked&#039; to the highest degree!!</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m racing toward my 67th birthday and early retired at 62. I&#039;m currently living on Long Island, NY. Like so many others of my generation, the draft played a major role in my life, convincing me to join the Air Force by February 1970 after my second 1-A pre-induction physical and spending the next four years working as&nbsp; Security Police K-9. Taking advantage of my VA benefits, after military separation, I attended College/University earning a Masters in Public policy/International Relations and then spent my last working decade in private industry. And like so many of us, I was always fascinated by History&nbsp; and finally started collecting Modern and Ancient coins by the late 1980&#039;s, selling them and returning to collecting &#039;Ancients&#039;---as a generalist---January, 2015.</p><p><br /></p><p>Among many other things, this coin represents my primary interest in Ancients---the time period and all that followed in the centuries yet to come; Siculo-Punic:</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;Silver tetradrachm, Jenkins Punic 394 (O120/R322); SNG CopVIII 91; Dewing 983; SGCV II 6438; HGC 2 295, NGC Choice VF, strike 4/5, surface 5/5 (3819620-001), Sicilian mint, weight 17.03g, maximum diameter 23mm, die axis 225o, 300 - 289 B.C.; obverse head of Herakles right, clad in lion&#039;s scalp; reverse horse&#039;s head left, palm tree behind, Punic inscription MHSBM (paymasters) below.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]703904[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
