    @jamesicus your pages are pure joy to read. I found this period very confusing, you have helped me sort it all out, thank you.

    My regular camera “gave up the ghost” awhile ago and I have had to use my iPad camera until I replace it. I tried using my Apple iPhone but I couldn’t get the pics half way decent. I like the iPad pics better, but they still leave a lot to be desired. Here is one:

    RIC VI, Londinium, No. 76b, Maximian Herculius (Abdication commemorative):

    Added via Edit: The coloration of the coin here is quite different from my web page display.
