Im no Pleb! I am at least an Equites! 400,000 sesterces...theres a cool thought.
GOLD - Doucet - Fallen horseman
SILVER - Chris - Octoking/Queen - I've got one of these but I've never seen a nice example so Its cool to see it clearly and know whats what
BRONZE - Monkeybean - Carausius - A unique coin of an expensive and uncommon emperor - wow!

Only five registered voters ? Where is everyone ? Maybe we should keep the polls open ?

Well ...... I am new at this but according to my math there is a three way tie for the 'Silver' with three more within striking distance if a few more points were to fall their way. I am reluctant to break up a three way. My only personal experience ended rather disappointingly ... but I digress. Perhaps one more will join to form a quorum (out of 12 "party's" entering we have only 6 actually voting)? Come out come out wherever you are !

Well I guess it is the consensus that Hadrian Sestertius with Poseidon reverse is the clear winner ... hands down. The problem would seem to be a three way tie between crsmat71 Sri Lankan coin, Doucet Constantius II Emperor spearing fallen horseman and Eng5858 Aurelian ORIENS AVG. Who will win the Silver (plated) toenail clippers once used by hitherto unknown Gallic usurper 'Tinactin' ? I will wait until morning and let you know ! (someone may vote and spare me the burden) Meanwhile ...... augustus1 start thinking of something worthy of Poseidon !
By the way I picked in no certain order Hadrian Sestertius 'Poseidon' and Carausius 'Emperor running over pedestrian' and thirdly ....... well ..... still a secret !

Okay you force me to put my foot down ...... The Tie Breaker for Silver is ........ To the man whom the Queen of Palmyra once said with great expectations "A hard man is good to find !" ...... Aurelian with Sol reverse kicking prisoner in the kidneys. The other two get to share 3rd prize which would be the actual toenail clippings of Caracalla found by archaeologists while scrubbing out his famous 'Bath'! I now resign my sceptre and retire.

TJ you can still cast a ballot ! It will get thrown out by the board of overseers but hey .... Why not. Besides the 'Gold' was a lock so you couldn't change the winner anyway.
