    I appreciate the replies.

    That's what I am afraid of. More the speed than the item going missing. It isn't a 3 figure item, but still, would be a shame to see get lost.

    There is a non numismatic item I've been thinking of getting, but it's located in Portugal and I have never bought anything from there. It isn't any great antiquity, more like 1944. This would also be my first purchase, from over seas, since before Covid struck. Has anyone bought from Portugal within the last year or two, and if so, how was the experience? Especially when it hit customs? What was the wait time, from mailing, to delivery? I've bought from plenty of over seas countries before, but never there. Thanks for any replies.

    Boy, post something to put a smile on peoples faces, and it turns into a race thing....I thought people left cointalk to move away from such topics and issues and talk about coins, history and collecting in general? Memes are no different than cartoons, movies, talk shows, music, and so on. It's just a modern form of entertainment and of course it can be used for unlikeable views, same with podcasts, twitter and so on.

    I'm on the PBS email list and saw they will have a new program called "Julius Caesar: The Making of a Dictator" https://www.pbssocal.org/shows/julius-caesar-the-making-of-a-dictator/preview-q5sihu?utm_source=03-30-2024&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=highlights&= I know most of us already know the history of him. They're still enjoyable to watch and sometimes they feature actual coins.

    Looking forward to seeing it cleaned up.

    Shame they want to empty it, I would leave it as it. Neat find, either way.
