    I like it Eng!

    Interestingly enough the reverse on my Caracalla is very similar, except that Mars is advancing Left holding spear and trophy,

    Still cant find myself wanting to own him & his bro as kids/teens. I find it weird with myself.

    Still a nice coin and excellent weight for the time too.
