[QUOTE="GerardV, post: 2910453, member: 76329"]Saw this coin in an auction and was immediately drawn to it. Luckily, my bid held up and I'm thrilled. It took an extra couple of days to arrive which made the wait agonizing. Our beloved mail lady didn't deliver to our house for two days because she claimed the mailbox was blocked. I guess the old slogan about "rain nor sleet nor snow" stopping mail delivery is no longer valid. The sad part is that there wasn't anything blocking my mailbox. I set up a hunting trial cam the second day to prove it, and it did. It further proved that our mail lady is a jerk and didn't like that I complained. When it snows, we will find our mail in a snow drift, or a puddle of slush in front of the mailbox. We aren't the only homeowners who have complained over the years, yet nothing changes. Had there been a car, or something else blocking my mailbox I wouldn't have caused a rukus. But, there wasn't and I know other people on our street complained as well. What I don't understand is why the mail person has to act this way. Why can't she deliver our mail like a million other hard working mail carriers out there. Just doesn't make any sense. Anyway, here is the Trajan....this is the seller's pic. Post any Trajan's or Syrian coins or anything else that you think fits. [ATTACH=full]702678[/ATTACH] Trajan,AD98-117.
