    Hi ro1974, I found a new camera a worthy investment... it might be much cheaper than your average coin but macro pictures put the actual coins to shame sometimes :).

    By the way - I love your collection! You seem like a kid in a candy shop - that reminds me of myself a lot :p.

    Here is my Claudius Sestertius of the same type as yours:

    Great coin, is that a rare type?

    What does the reverse legend mean?

    Mine is quite a bit more worn:

    Yours is a very nice coin @ro1974 -- I have always liked Claudian Sestertii especially for their elegant Inscriptional letterforms.

    For detailed information relating to this coin issue, including legend interpretations, go to:
