Thanks Virgil H. I have a general ancients collection with little pockets of obsessions.

Here's another one added today to the gallery:

Oh, both of the main captives types for Postumus (Double) Sestertii, those are great. The two-captives-and-trophy is a really interesting variation on a very old motif in Roman coinage. I still don't have either, but am always looking!
