A beautiful pair of coins Mat. The patinas are particularly very appealing. Wonderful photography too. Congrats!

 

Roman Imperial
Caracalla 198-217
AR Denarius
MONETA

 

Nice coins, Brian. The Moneta Caracalla is a Denarius though.

 

Really? Well...hmmm... Thanks! Caracalla, non-radiate! OOps! Yup, even my records says Denarius.... I must have taken Ant from the Treb Gallus...

 

Both a cool, neat finds Mat

 

I have done that too many times.

Fixed a error on my Forvm gallery from a coin I added in 2015.

 

Very cool desert patina OP-examples, Mat ......

Ummm, but kinda like you're all rattled about bronze disease => I am currently gun-shy of desert patina (but these two look fine)

... oh, and I still gave ya a "like" anyway

 

Oh, and here is a fairly cool Volusian ... sorta similar coin-type as your T-Bone

 

^Great temple on that.

I tested the sand and it seems legit. But I don't blame you, especially with VC dealers like, I think zurqieh, and others, using women's makeup? Wow...
