Nice additions! I particularly like that Aurelian tetradrachm - for some reason, it's very difficult to find late Roman-Alexandrian tets in nice condition. Yours is about the best I've seen!

 

Thanks. I am looking for a Legion Denarius coin. They seem to be quite expensive. But I will keep looking. I also love the Janis coins.

 

Marc Antony type?

 

Great coins. I have the same Tetradrachm

Thanks yours looks great. I don't have to have a Mark Antony just a nice example of a legionnaire coin that would have been in the pocket of a soldier.
