[QUOTE="Sallent, post: 2540812, member: 76194"]Yay, the man caved. Finally a coin that's not actually Biblical, even though it technically is loosely Biblical-ish.

You see what I did there? Sooner or later I knew we'd get you infected with the full blown ancient coins sickness. :D Oh yeah, here are some Parthians.
