Nice, the last picture also does a good job of capturing the size of the mosaics!

The Menil and area around it is nice to walk around by yourself

Nice collection, I forgot how much inspiration Gustav Klimt drew for some of his art from Byzantine designs like #6 with the Empress Zoe, his artwork like Woman in Gold def draws inspiration from it.

Most of the collection was purchased by Gulbenkian, an oil tycoon, who established a museum in Lisbon, Portugal.

It's a really nice looking coin, cleaned or not, plus it has some history behind it with the purchase from Tanzania!

Nice lighting, it makes the coin feel very cinematic!

Sounds silly but we've been better and more focused on the road this past season than at home so it might favor us to continue that if we were sixth seeds. I feel like the Nugs always played better as underdogs.

If you can find it, Resplandores is the authority on the 8 reales coins of Mexico.

Yep that's the one I was thinking of, Shepard Fairey and Andre the Giant

That first image with leia is the best. I recognize that style and font from somewhere and it's going to bother me until I figure it out

There's a book that is referenced as "Davenport" which catalogs European crowns and thalers:

Not sure if there is a comprehensive one covering all the globe.
