[QUOTE="TIF, post: 2588724, member: 56859"]Fantastic coins, Z, and great stories! I'm a bit surprised your [URL='https://www.cointalk.com/threads/the-nymphaeum-the-nymphaeum-the-nymphaeum-is-on-fire.272860/']Apollonia Nymphaeum[/URL] isn't on the list :) I like all of them but, perhaps oddly, #4 keeps catching my eye. It's such a perfectly worn coin and I just want to touch it. The strike must've been unusually deep to begin with to have so much device remaining yet the edges so worn. Great color, too! Your Gortyna stater wins the Best Surprise of the Year award. It's a pretty incredible coin, even in its ugly state :). The Tarentum is one of the most appealing "stubbier Phalanthos" examples I've seen. Good centering is hard to find on these Tarentum dolphin rider coins.
