Wow, Oki => that's a fantastic Hadrian prow-coin! (congrats) Easter coins, eh? Hmmm? => well, Easter is all about Jesus, eh? ... so how 'bout Jesus and/or Zombie Jesus? => Happy Easter
Lovely coin @Okidoki ! I have an "Easter" coin that arrived this morning, but I'm currently staying with family and won't be able to do anything with it until I'm home Sunday night. I guess it will have to be a "Monday" coin. :/
Very nice Hadrian Oki , could benefit from a clean up , especially the obverse. Here's my happy Hadrian Easter coin:
Good looking Hadrian coin. Really like the reverse, I'm looking for a Hadrian too, so please stop buying Hadrian coins for a little while. j.k.
Very interesting Hadrian denarius, Eric. I am guessing the attribution to an eastern mint is in the style of the bust and galley, correct?
hello Eduard, its the style, looks same obverse die as this eastern http://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pos=-135875
Okidoki you were lucky in that one. I was trying to order that myself but had to update my shipping address. In the time it took me to do that the coin went from in my cart to sold. Stupid cheap. Barry
Confused by your reply.... I wasn't calling you stupid, I was referring to the price of the coin. Just wanted to clarify.
Ahahaha, I understood your response, Oki => hey, I dare you to live dangerously and buy a sweet Greek Incuse-square!!
no worries Barry, its a Dutch saying, Literally: "Fortune is with the dumb" for me stupid is same as dumb
