It's been a while since I uploaded anything. I've always really liked Rome style Antioch Tets of Philip I, and always wanted one. I couldn't decide between the two, so I bought both. They weren't terribly expensive, so this might be a nice genre to collect.

There was some trick to make the pictures show, although one would think it would be the img command.
Anyone else collect the Rome style series? I think I'd like to collect more of these.
