    Holy Moly, Z-Bro => that coin is awesome!! (oh, and the rest of the gang had some sweet examples as well)

    Ummm, I don't have one of those cool head-in-hand examples, but I do have a couple of pretty sweet Serapis examples lying around here somewhere ...

    What is the difference between symbols head of Sol and head of Serapis and who they are?
