We here on CT will make it worse by showing coins you might want to consider. I'm a little surprised no one has posted their Domitians or their shaking hands or their completely unrelated coins that they just can't help from posting again and again. Maybe that is because you only posted a half hour ago. We must be patient.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
