[QUOTE="gsimonel, post: 3257942, member: 82549"]Welcome aboard. When you get a chance, how about posting a photo or two of some of your new ancients? (I love oxymorons.) A good way to post photos that will make everyone here like you (even though they probably already do) is to post both sides in one photo and then provide as much information as you have about your coin. Including the size and weight makes everyone here go: "Aah, nice post." Here's an example. I was going to post an image of this coin on a different thread about tetrarchs and beards, but half of Western civilization beat me to the punch. So I'll post it here as an example of how you might show off your coins: [IMG]http://feltemp.com/Images/Dynasty/ConstantiusI.JPG[/IMG] Constantius I Bronze Nummus Siscia mint, A.D. 300-301 Obv: CONSTANTIUS NOB CAES Rev: SACRA MONETA AVGG ET CAESS NOSTR - Moneta, standing left, holding scales and cornucopiae SIS in exergue; [star] in left field, B in right RIC 135a 28mm, 9.5g.[/QUOTE]
