    The depth and breadth of your collection never ceases to amaze me. All great coins, but the two MAs are awesome!!

    All winners in my book Bing but #8 #3 and #2 are my favorites. I especially like the Neapolis didrachm.

    All of these top ten threads have been really fun. I wonder why the ancients forum is the only forum that seems to do them.

    Real nice Neapolis nomos Bing (and the other coins as well). Every time I see an example of this type I feel sad over my own that was lost in transit, and upset at USPS for losing it.

    I think all are terrific @Bing for the same reasons you do and I know you snagged them at a price I would've jumped at as well.

    My favorites are #'s 3 and 2:hungry:!!!

    Looks like you had a good coin year, Bing. Nice coins. The Flaccus is my favorite, though not the best of the litter, probably. Nice obverse bust.

    Beautiful coins, all, @Bing.

    My favorites were 2 and 1 probably because every time I see a praetorian galley I think of those adorable crocs.

    Very good selection @Bing
    Having a soft spot for MA, I have to admit liking the two galley best

    I like all of the coins. I also got a Legion XIV coin this year as well.

    I looked at your forum gallery. Your collection has expanded quite a bit with a hell of a lot of nice coins. Looks like you have more Greeks and Roman Republic coins now.

    Great, eclectic set. I forgot how much I loved that MFB of Campania - man, what a beautiful coin!

    Thank you all for your kind remarks. My MA legionary collection has expanded quite some bit this past year. The Christmas gift from my son that is lost in the mail is a custom made display case for the MA coins, so I will post all of them once I have that in hand.
