Two thumbs up my friend.

 

Just another winner. You've amassed quite a few tets lately. How many does this one make?

 

Nice new pickup, Mat.
Yeah, it seems lately you've been focussing less on the ladies and more on just the tets.
Hrmm, sorry... that didn't come off sounding quite right.

 

17 at the moment.

 

Nice Mat, congrats on another cool tet.

 

Very nice Mat, i really like the Eagle..

 

cool coin mat! i don't have one of this cat, he is on my list...as is any tet of syria.
i very much like the style of these coins, i'm not sure why i haven't nailed one yet.

on the list...ruler and type.

 

Sweet lookin' coin, Mat ... ummm, it may not be a good lookin' chick-coin, but it is definitely a handsome addition (congrats)

Oh, and great eagle!!

I only have a very humble example of this chap ...
