    Very cool (who'd have thought I said that about something with a naked man on it). I like octagons and square/rectangular coins and medals, too.

    Well I like it--and I can say that without anyone making a joke image. The shape of it is cool--it looks like old Herc is about to break out of the medal along with defeating the lion. Very Cool.

    I notice you are selling your BBLs, are you going for the NG (Nekkid Guys) instead ??? imageimageimage. Seriously though, awesome and deserves a image (I really wish there was a drool icon on the list).

    Now that Bill mentioned it, it rather does look like a scene from our household, since we've been having to give the cat medicine lately. image

    My cats also, It is a battle Royal when it come to giving them pills.

    Thanks Cathy, we will have to work on a Drool icon, because there are many posted here that deserve itimage
    I am selling to narrow my field of interest. These medals are becoming prohibitivly expensive as I go for the rarer pieces.

    Well Cathy, you could faint, too. image

    Or, just run around saying, "Woo-hoo!!!" image



    Drool?
