[QUOTE="lordmarcovan, post: 5318472, member: 10461"]Wow, neat assemblage. Despite the minor flaws you mentioned, I am of course extremely envious of the gold stater! I want one, and have for a couple of years, but I expect I'll have to settle for a [I]quarter[/I]-stater one of these days, due to budgetary constraints. I like the East Anglian sceat- that at least is one type I have owned: [IMG]https://collectivecoin.imgix.net/ptAayMRRJe8gdSwWKP9V_rob_coins_shadow%20box_old%20roman%20maybe.jpg[/IMG] A Tarentum dolphin-rider is on my "to do" list for someday, before long. That's a fierce trident being thrown on yours! Nice coin. I like that it has a little "bonus owl" on it, too. Nice find and restoration job on the Utrecht penny! That facing bust reminds me of William the Conqueror on English coins of the period. The wolf/lizard combo on the reverse of that Celtic piece is neat. The wolf in particular looks suitably wolf-like and predatory, much more so than the one on [URL='https://www.cointalk.com/threads/lord-marcovans-top-9-ancient-medievals-of-2020-the-only-nine-actually.371739/#post-5255995']my VRBS ROMA[/URL] Roman bronze, which is great, but not very "wolfy". (I guess the correct term for “wolfy” is [I]lupine.)[/I][/QUOTE]
