His coins are very common - perhaps amongst the most common of the Hellenistic series. They are also very commonly faked. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
