@Ken Dorney 's givaway #5 arrived yesterday on Saturnalia. Here's what appeared: Roman Denarius. As far as I can tell, the ruler is Trajan, and the reverse is a depiction of Pax holding an olive branch and cornucopia. I had been wanting a denarius for a while, and I got two for Saturnalia. Roman Sestertius. I think the ruler is Hadrian. That is as far as I have gotten. I had been wanting a sestertius to finally have a hunk of ancient Roman copper. Now I have one! Ancient Chinese Bronze Cowrie. It is shattered, but it looks to be in otherwise good condition and fixable. Should be a fun puzzle.
So now that you have two denarii, does that mean we will be seeing more of you getting into ancient Roman and ancient Greek coins?
Yuppers! Once I graduate college, we can talk. Right now, I have two foci, and expanding that number would be a costly mistake.
