<p>[QUOTE="wrexx, post: 4985854, member: 114968"]Im gonna apologize for the lengthy response but as I mention its the only way I can express my thanks to the both of you for what your help brought about. </p><p><br /></p><p> That is it. I am able to now match all the little clues the coin has to give through the examples you both provided and I am thrilled beyond belief. My son just came running upstairs to find out why he kept hearing me apparently yelling That is it, that is it and together we picked out every little detail on our coin to the pictures I am 110% positive of, what the two of you figured out in blink, i have been trying to do for the past 6 weeks. Coin collecting opens so many cool avenues especially to think that I just not only now know what coin it is, but just spent the most enjoyable time with my son since he hit that age of he now knows everything.. Talk about a win win. That coin just became the most valuable one I have. I said that is crazy that they actually could call that coin from those pictures and his answer was google hasn't been around for ever, i know i will never have to walk a mile for a phone and there's nothing wrong with being successful even if it is just brushing my teeth twice a day. Find what I love and give it a 110% Happiness is a feeling peaceful is a lifestyle. Here is a great example of being successful. I have told him that the better part of his life and was positive he was hearing impaired, or worse, just could care less about anything that included responsibility. That was his answer to my question of how the two of you could basically call it from blind. I will say it again amazing what all a coin can teach you just a win win Don't really know how else to say thanks besides sharing what just took place not to mention just to wonder has this coin been holding on to my lesson for the past 1800 yrs. Did the person who created this coin see something special in it or its design . It has opened all these crazy little questions of who what why and how this coin and design came about and even though I am sure the story behind it isn't as romantic as all the thoughts we have as to how and why. I do know I see a lengthy history lesson coming and a whole new intrigue into this coin design and we all know where it goes from there. Ancients here we come. Think I will let my son take lead on that and look forward to seeing what I can learn not only from him but about him and who he is today as a person instead of how I have told myself he is and will be. I was sure it had to be pre colonial or early Us and the only reason I kept after it. I can yap about this whole, and what still seems a bit crazy eye opener, due to that blob of worthless metal ( not even close to my word for word affectionate things Ive screamed at it cause I thought why am I wasting my time on something obviously of no value no less probably not even a US coin no less an actual coin ) to this. I know no one will fully understand the big picture of what it is to me but heck maybe Dad doesn't know everything especially if hes doing all the talking. One coin two strangers one question and here I am still amazed and still yapping. I get it and That's it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
