So a couple days ago some coins came in from De Orc in one package and some more coins from stainless and Ardatirion. I am really sorry you guys that I have not even sent a PM saying thanks. Let me show you all what De Orc sent me. :hug: A package FULL of world coins! An insane amount of world coins! :hail: He sent me the shield collection, a Royal Wedding commemorative coin from Lady Diana's wedding, a (BU) 2007 2010 Vancouver Olympics quarter, and much much more coins dating back over 100 years!!! Let me show you one of my favorite ones. (I love the huge thickness of this coin and the odd shape.) 1937 3 pence coin Look how thick it is! Now for the coins Ardatirion & stainless sent me. (Some pretty cool ancients. hya: ) (I promise I will learn more about ancients. Any books you two recommend?) SO a BIG (blue) THANK YOU!!!!! :hail::hail::hail::hail::hail::hail:
Glad you like them! Honestly, if stainless' pictures were as good as yours, I might have bought that tetradrachm.
Great coins Freaky!! :thumb: I especially like those ancients. :thumb: Kudos to De Orc, Ardy, and the Wabbit. :thumb: Phoenix
Haha. I thought my pics were pretty crappy. My ancient coin that I ordered came in today and the details are amazing! (Seller's description: CONSTANTINE I. 307-337 AD. Æ Follis - 20mm (3.76 g). Lugdunum mint. Struck 314-315 AD. Laureate and cuirassed bust right / Sol standing left, right hand raised, holding globe in left; T-F/PLC. RIC VII 17. EF, brown surfaces.) There are lots of great people here.
Glad that you liked them Garrett and a couple of rather nice ancients from the look of it as well :thumb:
They were really nice De Orc. I took pics of a little less than half of the coins but then I gave up. There are a TON of coins that you sent me. I may have to start a 3 pence set.
Wow Garrett great coins , and a shout out to stainless , Arditirion , and DeOrc way to go guys , CoinTalk rules . rzage
Thats really cool Garrett - I especially like the Nero tetradrachm. I hope you enjoy these coins for a long time & that they further your studies.
Hey Freaky, it is really nice to see how much you enjoy your coins! your ancients and Fugios. Those guys are great - for example Ardatirion. Lots of knowledge there. Great!
Thanks. Ardatirion is one of the few guys I PM before an ancient purchase. One of the best with ancients here. :kewl:
I fully agree! anybody who can attribute a dug ancient from just a picture, looking like a lump of corroded metal to most of us, has got to know his ancients! he did just that a few months back...
