    Congrats, Lawyer Sallent

    I think I'm gonna start collecting the chariot-types (I just heard that they're way more cool)

    :rolleyes:

    Congrats on your sweet new OP-AR-RR addition (it's a total winner ... one of my on-going wish-list targets)

    Cool captures! Sadly I had to refrain from bidding. Burned up my coin cash.

    LOL, that would had been at least THREE of us, but I realized I had bid and/or won several othe coins, so I passed on this beauty. NICE capture @Sallent , congrats.

    Got the coin in the mail, as well as a corn cob pipe from @gregarious which I'm smoking now. I say that's a very good evening indeed.

    Carausius Brother, can you spare a sestertius?

    @Carthago 's Amphinomus looks like he's about to tear an Achilles tendon carrying that old man....Check-out his calves!

    That strikes me as a worthy example of a special type to be included in any collection. If it comes delivered at $143, I'd call that a good deal.

    That's an awesome RR AR Denarius! I've had my eye one of those on VCOINS and have almost pushed the "Purchase :greedy:" button several times. The profile of Roma is beautiful!
