Wanting to be king is not new. Being accused of wanting to be king is not new.
Caesar's face was on a coin, like kings. Brutus Et al killed Caesar and committed the same sin by issuing his EID MAR coin. PS - this one was sold as contemporary fake. It was probably made in 1990 +/- a few years.

I took a trip to town to meet friends for breakfast. One was headed to a No Kings rally later. On my way home I saw another not happy person was at the gas station before me. Price up $1.90 per gallon.

I saw these walking my dog yesterday.

The club above the knucklebone on this cast uncia gives it an interesting 3 line design on obverse and reverse. It weighs 19.6 grams.

Carlos III 8-Real 1772-V Potosi mint at the NYINC. The dealer's English was limited. I asked the price (it is under my finger) and if he would take a check. He said yes, but started waiving his hands when I opened my checkbook. A bilingual guy behind me said he meant the price was for cash.

looks like a duck to me

have a nice trip, relax & think of round things

not those yellow things again, uuugh.. PS - miss you at NYINC.

Bacon blue cheese burger with fried okra and sweet potatoes.

that is my guess

Theft from museums and collector groups is too common. I collect coins and the big guys in that field have had problems, some leading to jail time for perps.

oops, shoulda read this before clicking and seeing Christmas lights blinking from my computer's threat detectors.

3 smacks would do a lot of folks good

the last shot on my phone is usually a pocket shot

or maybe the International Criminal Court in the Hague

Wow, the ANS is moving from NYC to Toledo, Ohio. They have excellent cast bronze and scale weight collections. Shown below is a 1 As, 1.5 Uncia & 4 Scruple weight issued during Trajan's reign. @profyarrow.bsky.social @andrewahala.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2025/11/20/a...

Autumn Houston, 3 more grass cuts before 2026.

It will be a cold day in the courtroom that attempts to bring ice to justice.

did you just cross the Rubicon or a line in the sand?

I do that at home with hard back sudoku books.
