[QUOTE="LaCointessa, post: 2941978, member: 87186"]Great coins, [USER=83845]@Curtisimo[/USER]! Your writing is always captivating. That combined with the photographs of your coins caused me to wander off to do some immediate research. Like, when I looked closely at your coin with the Nikphoros reverse, it appeared that it was a female. I wondered about that and went to our friend Google. My suspicions were correct! I never knew that Nikphoros was intersexed. I did not get an absolutely definitive answer to that question because I must have clicked on something that led me to Nero and the young man he had fixed and then married. Who knew? Not me! At least seeing Nero reminded me I had been reading about coins and I was able to find my way back to your article. What a detour! I noticed that your owl reverse is extremely delicate - not a weak strike - but a delicate design. Here are my faves of your faves in descending order of favorocity. Best Loved 5 I'm in love with the incuse 8 - No comment 2 - lovely adolescent owl 4 - I like the idea of it and what it represents 9 - Eagle with attitude Loved a little less Thank you for posting these, Curtisimo.[/QUOTE]
