    Yes, I know what you mean. The coin is actually really pretty nice for a 61, which often suffer from a number of hits, diminishing the overall eye appeal. That really isn't the case here.

    There are some small nicks on her head and veil that might preclude a really high grade, but I'd expect this coin to grade at least 63 or 64.

    Is that Florian? Looks like it says FLORIANVS on it. If so, that's pretty darn cool. Florian, as you may know, was a pretty short-lived Roman emperor, who ruled for only 80-88 days - less than three months- before he got whacked.

    His coins aren't as rare as that would lead one to believe, but they're still kinda scarce.

    Honestly, I don't know. I bought it and it was pretty rough and encrusted.
    Let me look back in my posts and see if I asked that question to the ancients forum.

    If it’s a Florian, that’s a nice cherrypick, even though it’s still not going to be a high-dollar coin monetarily, in that condition. It’ll just have the coolness factor of being from one of those really short reigning emperors. Get the Ancients people to confirm the identity.
