    @GerardV, your thread got me to pull out my long-neglected Quintilluses for some in-hand appreciation. My conclusion... I really like your coin!

    Some of the other examples posted here are unusually nice, but by and large, this guy's coins really were the pits. I now know my five by their condition nicknames...

    "Silvered"

    "Patinaed"
    Quintillus - Virtus 1684.jpg

    "Flat"

    "Typical"
    Quintillus - Providentia 1771.jpg

    "Categorically awful"

    Wow. I really appreciate the fact people are going deep into the more obscure emperors.

    I had to remind myself about Quintillus:

    I need to have my now-ossified brain challenged sometimes. Thank you.

    I remember bidding on this coin, but ~$180-$200 was too steep for me, congrats on the great coin!!
