I'm not a mod so I can't ban you. In fact, I think the best thing to do would be to not ban you. Troll the troll.
OK, the troll is slain. For now, at least. That wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. Just had to read the Mjolnir instruction manual. We now resume the original discussion.
I dig your collection. I only have the one that I previously posted before all the shenanigans but I do believe I have another soaking in a water bath right now. I hope it turns out to be identifiable.
LOL, I have used the IGNORE button on this person some time ago, and a couple others recently, and I STILL can see the ridiculousness this TROLL has caused. IGNORance is BLISS!

Yeah, I deployed it rather early too but got sucked into clicking "view ignored posts" a few times, defeating the purpose . If someone on your Ignore list is very active it can make threads hard to follow. Oh well. Back to our normal peaceful happy board. And Randy-- I dug up an old FH I forgot I had! It was from one of my first ancient coin purchases, a batch of uncleaned coins (which were actually already cleaned... bah)
Fallen Horsemen UNITE AGAINST THE TROLLS! RI Julian II 360-363 CE Fallen Horseman AE3 RI Constantius Gallus Caesar 351-354 AE21 FEL TEMP REPARATIO soldier-spearing-fallen-horseman RIC 348 Siscia
Here's a Macedonian one, of a horseman spearing a fallen troll - the point of the spear even went through the coin
That was soooooo weird! Anyway. Great coins @randygeki and please keep them coming. I for one enjoy your falling horseman posts.
Thanks all, and neat coins! I have one more new FH to share. Found it when I got home from work It's not the best, but has an unusual field mark. A weird epsilon "C<" RIC 127 I also have another with the same symbol. RIC 115
I was struggling to make any sense of this thread and then realised that I was already ignoring the content... Nice coins in a shared area of obsession.
And so, from that day on, whenever a troll was slain, the people of the land would celebrate the Restoration of Happy Times with joyous cries of "FEL TEMP REPARATIO" and gratuitous postings of their Falling Horseman coins .
Not only is that one pretty sharp with nice patina, but I daresay that's one of the most handsome portraits I can recall seeing on one of these.
