    Group photos!

    Great post @CPK — I love looking at group shots showing varieties of colors, shapes, and sizes. Here’s a montage of my Judaean collection. I also call it my David Hendin Collection because each one has a different Hendin number.
  4. Awesome post, @Ryro and seeing all of these beautiful tets is TETRAFYING (Sorry, I couldn’t resist)
  5. Awesome coins and post, @Roman Collector You have enlightened and heightened my awareness of all things Faustina. ⭐⭐⭐ I posted this one last week but every time I look at it I see something new.
  6. Great coins and post @shanxi ! Fascinating topic and one to which I can relate being a Sagittarius and an occasional recreational archer... ... although, my bow is currently in storage.
  7. A few new faces in my denarii gallery Please share anything related
  8. Great coin and post, @Prieure de Sion ⭐⭐⭐ !

    Great to see that your forces have crossed the Channel, Your Lordship 😊 ! — LONGIINUS aka Deacon Ray
  10. Welcome to the sunshine ☀️
  11. Great coins and great to see you posting, @Steve ! — LONGINUS aka Deacon Ray
  12. Awesome TGIFF post, @Romancollector! Your left facing (RIC 360D) and your Stop in the Name of Love denarii are particularly beautiful. I too have a weakness for pretty faces and couldn’t resist this one.
  13. Augustus sounds like a great candidate, @Ryro ⭐⭐⭐ !
  14. The Augustus and Tiberius denarii are my first Roman Imperial purchases of 2022. The others were acquired in 2021 beginning with the Five Good Emperors and the Five Julias. I was on an educational sabbatical from January through June so I got off to a late start this year. Feel free to post your coins related to late beginnings or anything else you feel appropriate.
  15. Great post, @Paddy54 Awesome images ⭐⭐⭐! Parmesan is definitely one of my favorites. Among my others are Jarlsberg and Romano.
  16. I forgot to mention why I’m using my current avatar. Anyway, the verbiage is self explanatory as far as my collecting focus but the chalice symbolizes the Holy Grail and my interest in holy relics. I’ve always been fascinated with Biblical archeology and the Indiana Jones type character searching for them. I ordered my first ancient coins from a company advertising an authentic Coins of the Holy Land Collection in the back of a Biblical Archeology magazine.
  17. Great thread , @maridvnvm This is probably the longest I’ve gone without changing my avatar. Under my CT name of Deacon Ray, I changed it weekly sometimes daily. My Numis Forum screen name, LONGINUS, is taken from a legendary Roman soldier in some but not all Bible translations. I decided not to use my Deacon Ray screen name this time. Anyway, Here are a few of my avatars and selfies used on the CT forum from the last 2 years.
  18. That’s an interesting coin, @Steppenfool It has a lot of character. I was lucky to find this one a few years ago.
  19. I‘ve seen her before on one of my favorite coins. Great post @Spaniard ⭐⭐⭐ !
  20. Many thanks to all of you for posting your great comments and amazing coins. @Parthicus @Alegandron@The Eidolon @UkrainiiVityaz @TheTrachyEnjoyer @Ryro @ChrisB @DonnaML @John Conduitt
  21. Great—thanks for re-posting. When I mentioned Napoleon yesterday on your Usurper thread, I had totally forgotten that today is June 18. When I realized this morning that it’s the 207th anniversary of the battle, I knew that I had to post my Napoleon coins.
  22. I’ve been fascinated with Napoleon and Wellington since I was a kid.
  23. Beautiful coin @Nerosmyfavorite68 I use a shop vise to liberate captive coins. I place the slab in the vise lengthwise and apply pressure gradually. It’s best to wear safety goggles.
  24. Very interesting post, @AncientNumis Here are my french coins and some of my militaria from the period (1914–1918.)
