[QUOTE="Curtisimo, post: 5163785, member: 83845"]Excellent 5.5 my friend. I greatly enjoyed your write ups this year. Your Dombes are great as are all the coins in your collection but my favorites overall this year are: #1 Electrum stater - A very nice coin. You need no excuses to buy this one. It is a great example of a cool series. #3 Half Augustus - I loved your write up on this coin. I also think it is remarkable how nice the portrait of Augustus is considering half the coin is literally missing! The half coins are a cool reminder of how denominations were thought of in antiquity and how it differs from the modern conventions (i.e. If I were to cut a dime in half it wouldn’t be worth a nickel). #6 Syracuse Bronze - I like these too.
