Too many fires, not enough irons.

 

Great bronze, would take this in a heatbeat!

 

my lips are sealed about your numismatic infidelity.

man, i love a big green sestertius! the little kid on the reverse is very cool as well. nice one IR!

here's my only julia m, a denarius.






man, i just can't seem to commit to any one coin type yet.

 

Nice big coin icerain, good color and hot woman to boot..

 

Wow icerain, that's a fantastic new chick-Sestertius addition!! (very yummy)

... I also only have one Julia Mamaea Sesterius example ...

=> yup, it's my good ol' melty-face





... I would trade for your sweet obverse any-day!! (congrats)

 

Steve I really like the reverse of your coin. I may start a collection of sestertius coins going to look for that one later on.

 

That's not a sestertius, it's a tetradrachm of Alexandria, if I'm not mistaken.

 

JA => 100% (and it's still my only Julie-Mama coin) ...

Tomato, Tetmato

 

Nice AE!
