I plan to. I am in the process of adjusting to retirement and life changes. I plan to finally execute my project of thoroughly cataloging and reshooting my collection. Going to redo my office for my collection projects. I may even look to sell some of my lower interest categories in 2025… dunno yet.

In the case of the Carthage 15 Shekel coin, I found this info… Hannibal issued it (after losing to Scipio at Zama), when he was organizing Carthage's finances after the 2nd Punic War. Hannibal was scrambling to pay the massive Roman War indemnities. I like to personally call these very scarce coins the ZAMA since no one truly knows what they were called at the time. These were probly produced to ship to Rome, then they (Roma) may had melted them down to convert into their currency. My thoughts.

But with all these honkin' big-as coins from Egypt, I still enjoy my baby DiChalkon from Trajan: RI Trajan Egypt AE Dichalkon Laureate hd L Rhinoceros walking L LI-Z yr 17 CE 113-114 12.9mm 1.25g Emmet 719 var. rhino right
