TIF - Being a huge Star Trek fan I wanted to make you aware of the need to own Gold Pressed Latinum. Minted on Ferenginar under the aegis of the the Grand Nagus Zek. Dated 2370.

I also agree my guess would be Securitas. Leaning on a column.

 But do you have a Star Trek Enterprise pizza cutter? That's what I gave Mom for Christmas two years ago. She was delighted. My parents were the Trekkies (ahem) Trekkers in the family.

HA TIF you have no idea...I have a 1701-A baby spoon. I am neck deep in trek stuff. Although I am a minority in the trek community... My basement has venerations of both Kirk and Picard, although Picard is more heavily adorned.

Not Securitas in this case. It is someone else in the same pose.

OK, I'm really striking out trying to find a goddess standing left with staff in right hand, leaning on a pedestal.
Early on I thought it might be an atypical representation of Venus. Can't find one to match it but I'll go with that anyway. Venus :)

Jeeze Tif, I have collected ancients for years and I am not nearly as good or as fast as you and Martin. You guys are fierce.

No, I'm just spending WAY too much time surfing the ancients :) But with GTE and GTG it's a fun way to learn. Really need to move on to some other chores today, my day off...
