[QUOTE="Finn235, post: 3188245, member: 98035"]Hello all, longtime lurker but finally decided to register to say hello and post here and there. A lot of you probably know me from other forums. I've been a lifelong coin collector, but recently (3 years ago) found my calling in ancient coins. After dabbling aimlessly, I decided to start a few projects: Major: - Intensive dive into Indo-Sassanian coinage; specifically trying to refine, correct and expand upon the evolutionary path of the "Gadhaiya" type put forth by Mitchiner, Deyell, and Maheshwari. - A "one of each personage" collection of Roman Imperial portraits from Julius Caesar until at least Anastasius. Minor: - A dabbling type collection of Indian coinage, from Gandhara Janapada until modern (ish) times - A meager attempt at a "one from every culture" collection, largely tapering off in the middle ages. - Whatever shiny or cool thing grabs my attention! To get things started, here's a group shot of some of my favorite coins in my collection! How many can you recognize?[/QUOTE]
