<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Justin Lee, post: 3271692, member: 87404&quot;]I finally had a chance to open and post my SS gift! And, boy, did Saturn smile upon me! I&#039;ve had it, this brown padded envelope, for a couple weeks, but I wanted to wait to open it until my own SS recipient received and opened their&#039;s.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]863020[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Inside this unassuming package was a very Saturnalia-y festive card!</p><p>[ATTACH=full]863025[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>And this card had 2 (TWO!!!) coins taped inside along with a very nice personal note from my Secret Saturn, our one-and-only [USER=74712]@FitzNigel[/USER]!</p><p>[ATTACH=full]863027[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Though he mentions being worried <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie67" alt=":nailbiting:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> about coin choice for me, I almost feel like he peered inside my head... <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie101" alt=":woot:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>You see, I don&#039;t have any Owl coins in my collection yet, so I&#039;ve been keeping an eye out for one that speaks to me... This one does, with it&#039;s beautiful face peering back, one can&#039;t help but make eye contact and feel connected. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie100" alt=":wideyed:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]863028[/ATTACH]</p><p><font size="3"><i>(Seleukid Syria Antiochos VII, Athena/Owl) </i></font></p><p><br /></p><p>And I&#039;m a big fan of Augustus coinage, and there is a coin type that I&#039;ve seen posted by many others here on CT, and similar to the above, I don&#039;t have one in my collection and had been keeping an eye out, but now I do! Augustus with the Thracian King Rheometalkes! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie57" alt=":jawdrop:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]863030[/ATTACH]</p><p><font size="3"><i>(Thrace, King Rheometalkes/Augustus) </i></font></p><p><br /></p><p>I want to say and send a <b>BIG <i><u><font size="6">THANK YOU</font></u></i></b> to [USER=74712]@FitzNigel[/USER] for knocking it out of the park!
