Roman Empire -- AR denarius, 80AD, minted in Rome by Emporer Titus, honoring Vespasian (who was emperor from 69-79AD). Vespasian's portrait is shown on the coin:   10 points?

12 points, actually, the Roman Empire counts as a 2-point version of Italy.
You're in the lead and will probably stay there unless @tdziemia shows up with a St. Nicholas and/or a multi-saint coin from an Italian state.
Current leaderboard:
1) pepactonius - 12 points 2) Arkie - 10 points 3) keith12 - 5 points 4) chafemasterj - 3 points

Quote: I had to look up Saint Stephen so here it is for anyone else that didn't know. It all comes back to Christmastime...  Quote: In Western Christianity, 26 December is called "Saint Stephen's Day", the "Feast of Stephen" mentioned in the English Christmas carol "Good King Wenceslas".

2 things
1. We call him Santa claus or father Christmas in New Zealand, not Saint Nicholas 2. I am Jewish and we don't really celebrate Christmas (Or Hannukkah as we are pretty much secular)
Realy, ha spell clecking me the most illiterate and uncoordinated typist on the boards.
Hopefully something will come that I can enter.

I've been a little distracted lately, but I see that there hadn't been any entries for a few days now, so we can probably call this round.
@pepactonius - you're next!

Let me consult my list of ideas -- it gets harder and harder to find something that hasn't been done before.

Some posibilities:
- Post your lowest numerically-graded PCGS/NGC coin (no "details" coins) - Post your oldest coin from the southern hemishpere - Post your 2nd oldest coin (need to post the oldest one, too, but the 2nd oldest counts for points) - Post your most common silver coin (lowest rarity rating) in the Numista catalog
I'm open to suggestions
