    Thank you. There's nothing quite as magnificent as old cabinet/envelope toning on an ancient.

    And no denying, between Galba and this MA legionary denarius, this one stands out as the real beauty, although the other coin still has a charm of it's own.

    @TIF authenticity check? I got a bad gut reaction to this coin.

    TIF Always learning.

    Looks fine to me. Gorgeous!

    Also, it's from FAC. Very reliable. (And apparently there is a lag between someone buying a coin from the FAC website and the coin being removed from the available list in their Vcoins store.)

    Orfew Draco dormiens nunquam titillandus

    Another nice bonus with that coin is that FAC coins always look better in hand than in the photos.
