<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Justin Lee, post: 4724212, member: 87404&quot;]I&#039;ve been meaning to post in this thread since June. When it first started, I was in the final weeks of a course so had very little free time and told myself when it ended I&#039;d post... But that was mid-June. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie57" alt=":jawdrop:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> Oh well, better late than never. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie85" alt=":smuggrin:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve been frequenting the Ancients forum often (is that a polite way of saying refreshing the forum every couple minutes to see what&#039;s changed and who&#039;s posted what?? ) since May 2017. I didn&#039;t really have a history of coin collecting, but found my first ancient on Ebay in spring of that year and I&#039;ve been along for the ride ever since. I find learning about history (or anything for that matter) fun and enjoyable, so having actual artifacts like these coins is SOOO intriguing and helps me more deeply engage in their history. I started off exploring Roman Antioch SC &amp; wreath AE coins as my sort of focus, but have since moved on to Punic Wars and Roman Imperial coins, and that might change too in the future.</p><p><br /></p><p>I just turned 40 last month, have a loving wife and celebrated our 1 year anniversary in June (thank you to all the well wishes last year! Such an amazing community!)... in fact I think I share it with Doug and his wife (6/21?)!&nbsp; I have 2 amazingly sharp and caring kids from a previous marriage, a 12yo son &amp; 9yo daughter. I&#039;m currently a quarter away from completing a degree in psychology, and I work at a university doing media and product strategy, design , and innovation work. I&#039;m live in Minnesota in a suburb of Minneapolis, but grew up in a small town in Wisconsin right on the border of it with MN. We just bought a house over the winter.</p><p><br /></p><p>IRL I&#039;m a bit silly, weird, punny and witty, sometimes let potty humor slip out, and awkward at times. But that&#039;s me. I love learning, making genuine connections with people, and being kind.</p><p><br /></p><p>I really, REALLY love the community we&#039;ve built here and call many of you my friend. I appreciate all the expertise, experience, humor, and camaraderie that is shared amongst one another every day, every hour, every minute here on this site.&nbsp; Thank you![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
