    I'll tel you what. How about I buy a ticket for us both this week. If it's a winner, we'll share (but the odds are against us).
    This is the first I've ever been called a "winner", but it sounds good. Thanks

    @Aethelred I havent recognized the coins even when they were fully disclosed, but I missed the opportunity to participate with this thread being out of contest subforum, can your next game be placed there?

    Well, I've been trying to photograph my winning coin, but it hasn't been easy. The patina is a nice brown, but there are green deposits which my camera seems to glom unto. At any rate, I ended up using my wife's new cell phone to get the best images. Thanks again to @Aethelred for really a nice Gallerius

    Not a 100% certain on the attribution. Please correct me if I am wrong.

    Finally received the coin I've won in Michael's GIVEAWAY, it took 11 days to cross the big pond to the Netherlands.
    My first Roman Tetradrachma from the Alexandria mint, very happy with it, thanks Michael.
