When I first looked at a book of ancient Greek coins, I said I have to get one of these Cool At least until I saw all the zeros after the 1st couple digits in the price Embarrassed The ultimate definition of classic greek art! Congratulations Exclamation

As has been said. A great piece of ancient Greek art. I will have to wait many years but one day I will own one. I only hope that it is half as nice as this one.

WOW. I'd Kill for that. Or at least sell a family member, in the traditional ancient fashion.
