best ancients website?
 
I think this is the best ancients website for learning and probably for buying samples. I havent bought there yet but I have read that they're reliable.

Tons of info and coins for sale

3300 coins there plus. plenty to look through. you want an athenian owl thats a place to get one.

I have seen several with fortuna on them

lots to choose, lots of pure freakin fun man, pure enjoyment.

You are one paranoid and spiteful, dude.
I don't rate threads, ever. I'm sure I could figure out how but certainly couldn't tell you how it is done right now.
I don't pay attention to thread ratings. I couldn't tell you where they are, I assume in the main thread listing of each forum.

I was simply pointing out the humor I found in the fact that the 1st 3 posts of most of your threads belong to you. It is considered bad form, btw, to reply to your own posts.

I sure as hell don't care enough about you or your threads to try to make any of us look bad with a stupid thread rating.

I didn't downrate your thread. I respect your views a lot (when they're not about religion anyway, heh). Actually I've never rated a thread and I'm not sure how to do it...

You're not the only guy combing through my posts and threads I see. Somebody was counting words in my threads yesterday too. I encourage you all in this, and kindly offer my comments to you here free of charge for your reading.

anyhow they got it all from cheapo bronze follis to the trop cher byzantine gold solidus. check it out. hold a piece of history.

Combing is pushing it.
I read pretty much every single thread on these forums (via Today's Posts link) every single day.
That means I read everything you write. It also means I read everything everyone else writes, too.
That I notice a pattern does not imply I am scouring your threads for ammo to use against you. that I post an account of my observation doesn't mean that I am derailing you, attacking you or otherwise trying to lower the perceptions of your posts.

In fact, to any astute reader, you do enough perception lowering on your own. As an initial visitor to this forum many of your posts I perceived to be insightful, informative, well-worded and good at engaging discussion. In a few short months I see that you are so egotistical and threatened by anything that can possibly be turned into an attack on you that you drive your own readership away while creating a base of users who negatively critique your posts. This, in turn, creates a negative feedback loop.

I apologize for having messed this thread with OT discourse. I had intended simply to let you know that it looks bad to respond to your own posts 3 times before anyone else gets a word in. I can see, now, you are more interested in controversy than cohesiveness. I'll make a better effort to keep my comments pertinent to the topic at hand, I'd appreciate it if you'd stop subscribing me to your list of detractors by default.

Thank God I am only doing this for fun and out of my sense of republican duty. Its great not to have to worry about pandering to the audience. I guess if somebody doesnt like it, they know what to do right? :D

Cohesiveness with my own kind, you betcha.

actually I dont know if those are brother tokens or what, but they are kind of neat.

the best replica they sell at that web page though is the "Sicilian Dekadrachm."

Some banned user posted a thread about that a ways back here that nobody replied to.

Thanks. I don't really collect coins other than bullion, but I've tried to find things like that on occasion without success.
