<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ryro, post: 4344978, member: 91461&quot;]I excitedly open my package from Frank this morning.</p><p>The 3 coins I’d won went in this order:</p><p>Good<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />, really good<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie100" alt=":wideyed:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> and then TRAGEDY<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie57" alt=":jawdrop:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie56" alt=":inpain:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie55" alt=":hurting:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie87" alt=":sorry:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p>First, a fun coin from Locri with a beefy Athena and a big batch of grapes:</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1100269[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1100266[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>I was very excited with this one (my first of it’s kind). Pan’s has some good detail and the reverse is great. But ooooeeee! That patina is a beauty:</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1100265[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1100268[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>It is described as having a hole. Amazingly, it still does. All the damage it endured from travel has broken it into many tiny shards, how the hole in the middle didn’t cause it to break in half is beyond me. Oh well. Overall, I’m still happy with the coins. Maybe just a sign that I need to give up on Sassanians. This one followed by a fake i had acquired a time ago (not from Frank) make me leery, weary or just dreary of them<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie5" alt=":confused:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1100267[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1100263[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Does anyone have the list Frank originally sent out? I’d like to read his descriptions of these. When he puts in a good wise crack I always like to include that with my coins description.</p><p><br /></p><p>Anyway, Happy Easter my CT pals:</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1100264[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
