Of course, doug, the Pharos lighthouse! I just turned down a Marc Antony denarius for $100, I'm not sure I could afford what their asking these coins!  Maybe Steve can help me out, he's in that financial class  Yep, now I remember. Fort Rodd Park Steve. Thanks for jog. Your wine god lots like a metro man in the second image! Yikes! He/she needs a new look!  |

oxos => this is the view that I grew-up with ... This photo is taken from Cordova Bay beach (Victoria, B.C.), looking towards oxos' house (Mount Baker looming in the background)  ... I've made myself home-sick ...  |

Nice shot of Mt. Baker Steve! But you have to turn your camera to the right about 90 degrees to see where I live. You know where Port Angeles is? Probably remember the Coho ferry that runs from there to Victoria? It still does. I live about 15 miles east of PA. Umm, those other pics though? Your in the higher lats with the northern lights (although we get them here once in a while). So where's home now if I may ask?  |

I was at Neah Bay once and the light show was fantastic.
Oxos I just sent you a PM.

I can see Mt. Baker from home too--but so far no auroras. I'm probably in that fog bank in Steve's picture.

Oh, Port Angeles, gotcha (that's actually a nice view as well, with a different, but just as pretty group mountains in the background)

What side of the border DVCollector?
I've seen probably 6-8 nights of the aurora in my 40 years living here. Awesome experience!

Echizento, did you send it to my email address? Haven't received as yet. Even looked in my junk folder.

Oxos, I'm due east of you about 60 miles. I've seen some pretty amazing auroras, but over Iceland. |

Sadly, today's coin is a bit off-centered, so I don't get the "grapes below" on the obverse ...
=> but I loved the "cow suckling calf", so I knew that the coin was coming home when I saw it!! (mooooooo!!)
