Please forgive my double-post from elsewhere. I was woefully unaware of this SPLENDIDLY FUNNY thread until now.
It's been a while since a TLL has struck me but this coin kept niggling at me and today I realized what it looked like...
LOL, leave it to the Medical Profession for a cool perspective on a coin. I wonder how folks would feel about our looks if we were all inside-out. We would truly understand that it is the beauty of the essence of the person, rather their skin. It is fun to rethink perspectives through different frames. Metus / Medusa was originally a gorgeous person... Etruria Populonia 3rd C BCE AR 20 As 8.1g Metus Blank HN152

Bringing back an oldy by really goody (now if only I could bring @TIF back) Always love scrolling through these. it’s strange but it’s true, Freddy, this coin reminded me of you
I'm around but not on CT much in the last few weeks-- surprisingly busy with COVID-related stuff and adjusting to life's new parameters. I'm so behind that I doubt I'll ever catch up with posts I missed but if you see any I really need to read, please PM me . Hope everyone is well! Things are good at my house.
This board is really missing you. For example, there was a thread lately about big coins...and we did not see your Reese's specimen...Be careful and take good care of your mother. See you soon again.
Totally! My wife described this one's reverse as "the victorious Venus brandishing vacuum and duster"! Now I cannot see a shield set on a helmet, but only a Hoover upright.
