<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1293836, member: 26302&quot;]This is a pic of a coin I just overpaid for at an auction. I didn&#039;t care, I would have bought it at almost any price. My mother passed away just 6 days after my son was born, a few weeks ago, and this obverse looks like her 20 years ago. Thereverse of a greyhound was fitting since she used to adopt rescued greyhounds. Its weird how something like this can just pop up out of the blue. Even the moneyer name of Postumia was eery.</p><p><br /></p><p>This one is for you Mom.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]144594.vB[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Chris</p><p><br /></p><p>Edit: I should add photo courtesy of CNG, Attribution is:</p><p><br /></p><p>C. Postumius. 73 BC. AR Denarius (18mm, 3.98 g, 9h). Rome mint. Draped bust of Diana right, with bow and quiver over shoulder / Hound advancing right; spear below. Crawford 394/1a; Sydenham 785; Postumia 9. Good VF, toned. </p><p><br /></p><p>FWIW.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
