  1. I always have fun creating virtual graphics featuring my collections because showing obverse and reverse in the same image makes it look as though I have twice as many coins as I actually do 😁. This one has not changed much since the last time I posted it except for a couple of upgrades. Virtual Abafil trays are fun. Finally, here’s my virtual denarii heap.
  2. Great post, @Roman Collector ! The portly portraits are my favorite.
  3. Thank you for your great post, @Valentinian! Here’s my favorite mini theme from my Judaean collection.
  4. I’m enjoying your post @Limes! I too am a recent Gordian appreciator (2022) Our friend, Sallent, from the CT site was an avid Gordian collector.
  5. I received my latest Seleucis and Pieria addition the other day. I spread out my provincial coins on the desk and realized that I had a complete set of 5 Good Emperors with the SC reverse. Anyway, my latest is the Marcus Aurelius in the lower right of the poster. Antoninus Pius McAllee reference corrected. Thanks, @Al Kowsky
  6. Its always great to see your posts, @dougsmit! I think your coin is a great acquisition — the lily image is beautiful. It reminds me of one of my favorite Judaean coins and one of my first ancients.
  7. Great post, @Coinmaster! Although this coin does not offer an image of a well known monument it does feature a Roman architectural monument in symbolic form.
  8. I can’t let Cinco de Mayo 2023 go by without posting a few items from my French militaria collection.
  9. Thank you, @Limes for your interesting post! I too have only one. Here’s my first and only Gordian.
  10. I’ve added a few and enlarged my coin tray to accommodate them. Feel free to show us your lost coins that miraculously reappeared.

  12. Great post, David! The image of Minerva in crested helmet with spear is a powerful one.
  13. Great post, @Hughie Dwyer ! I’ve always loved the handshake symbol and the history behind these coins.
  14. My first Nabataean coin came in a boxed Holy Land collection. These were my first ancient coins. Third from left—bottom row.
  15. That’s a beautiful coin, @shanxi — thanks for posting ! I love the imagery on Nabataean coins and have acquired a few.
  16. Thank you for posting, David! That’s an impressive coin in appearance and no doubt in hand. Here’s my most recent Vespasian from 2022.
  17. Thanks, folks for your comments and superb images! ⭐⭐⭐⭐
  18. That’s a fine Aemilian antoninianus, @Kali! I too am a relative newcomer to the Aemilian club.
  19. Greetings, forum friends, Judaeans were my first love when it comes to ancient coin collecting — I’ve acquired quite a few over the years. Here are some of my favorites. Palm Sunday Blessings to you all!
  20. Forum member additions to the “Emperor’s Portrait Gallery,” are amazing! Mine was minted after 282 AD which makes it my most recently circulated ancient antoniniani / denarii. Beautiful coins and posts, FORVM friends ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ !
  21. Thanks for the great thread @Nerosmyfavorite68 ! Here's my one and only Valerian II.
  22. Great post, @Kali ! I’m enjoying all of these beautiful green coins. Here’s my greenest. Here’s one of my favorite statues of none other than Nathaniel Greene. I drove past it every day on my way home 🚙 😎
  23. Great thread, @CPK! I purchased this one in 2022 Here’s a poster of the gifts I’ve received in recent years from generous forum friends. The beautiful Postumus antoninianus in the upper left was a Secret Saturnalia gift.
