<p>[QUOTE="Alegandron, post: 2430524, member: 51347"]I am taking the approach that I have the <i><b>Seutonius Twelve</b></i>, but in total, I presently have 108 different Emperors, Caesars, and Usurpers in my stable (Albums). They are cool placemarkers in History, and it looks like I still have several to go. Let alone going after the Empresses later in the future... (sorry [USER=21445]@Mat[/USER] you started trading some with me, but those targets will be when you have YOUR set complete <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> ) That is for the Original Empire, or the Western Empire. I have the first 3 Byzantines... that could be <i>another </i>daisy chain to chase...</p><p><br /></p><p>But, still, I enjoy chasing cool coins from the <b>Roman Republic and their Adversaries... That is my REAL passion!</b> This is all just plain FUN for me.</p><p><br /></p><p>Then, well, Alexander's Generals - The Diadochi are fun to collect too... (their Descendants don't really interest me... lots of backstabbing and cloak & dagger crap...) <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> FUN again...</p><p><br /></p><p>It all comes down to: This is MY Hobby, MY Fun, and I just plain ENJOY it... I learn here, and only focus on what I enjoy. I love all the opinions, learning, ideas, sharing, links, photo tips, etc... all great. (THANK you EVERYONE!!!) But, it still comes down to what I ENJOY and get out of this... <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>And if folks take jabs at me: <i><b> Water off a Duck's Back!</b></i> I have fun jabbing back. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>When I started posting here (even when I had been "lurking / learning" for a couple years), there were very few RR collectors. I kept posting, commenting, asking, etc... probably being the oddball (hey, maybe except for [USER=44132]@Bing[/USER] ...) and now SEVERAL RR folks have joined! The hobby has several good focus'es (FOCI), that I could care less about... and LOL, I make fun of within my head...
