I know, I would get the special promotions, now and then, but it's been many months since they even had a promotion.

I've seen him on CT, now and then. He was on it, yesterday.

One thing I haven't gotten in months, is ebay bucks. Usually, you get notified when it's available, but I haven't gotten one, in over 6 months, and I spend about 3 figures a month, on ebay, so it isn't a lack of purchasing.

Nice, I have a Charles III, Mexico Mint.

Yes, I read it & loved it too. I haven't noticed any prices going up on her, just all ancients in general, since Covid.

In about a half hour, Harlan's son, Aaron, will be doing a live Q&A, over on the Reddit. He's giving away a book to his favorite question that he answers. For anyone that interested. Should make for some good reading too.

I am a big fan of over weight coins, that is one of the heaviest I have seen of his. I have seen some over 5g, but never almost 7.

An ancient coin featuring, Fulvia. I haven't found the "one", yet.
