    Your face looks too feminine, so you're even. :)


    But seriously, there are cultures where women's faces look different than the faces of women you are more likely to see on your tv or in person...doesn't make them any less feminine.

    looks like the debt and death skull guy is beaten on the ground.

    the gal is carrying the sbss trivium shield, which I do not like. she does not wear tattoo of the shield.

    the stacks of $100 notes looks like silver bars!

    the gal should be better dressed with Tarzan's skin wear. ;)

    she looks a bit like Morgiana Finalis :)

    It's interesting that Caesar is mentioned in the same way as other ("bloody") tyrants/dictators. If we leave all TV shows and movies aside, what I've read in his biographies, I wouldn't say it was (all that) bad. For sure he was conqueror and slayer of many innocent people, but Roman (Empire/Republic) had many problems, not to mention the Senate was (at least based on "official" history) corrupted as hell.

    In fact it's hard to say that every dictator is bad person and democratic system is without flaws (or blood).

    And also dictatorship was once understood differently than today.

    Guess that all important historic persons have at least some "scent" of controversy. After all "caesars" (emperors) or tzars following him basically bear his name. :)

    Anyway I think this is one of the most interesting designs Duane has made. Woman face could be different though. The leg is obviously being hidden behind dress. :)

    Ah, so it's Heidi again. I'll buy any coin collaboration that she is involved in.

    The proof coins I've received have been good. The bu coins on the other hand are a little rough.

    From what I have read / heard, the quality issues were associated with the Mulligan Mint.

    C. Duane is using a different mint now to produce his rounds / medallions. The quality should be better.

    I have some of his newer rounds from the new mint he is using and the quality is also garbage.

    Just before the split the Mulligan Mint was producing spectacular looking rounds, probably the most flawless rounds I have ever bought actually.
    Bot parties got greedy and destroyed something pretty special at a time where they finally figured everything out. What is currently being produced by the new mint is not even close quality wise, surprised that is rarely mentioned.

    So far as sales are concerned I bet both parties wish they could go back in time.
