My rarest is probably an As of Clodius Albinus that is a die match of the one in the British Museum, second rarest is a DI Patrii sestertius of Septimius Severus, but I do not have handy photographs and I think I previously posted both. Of the ones I do have photos of - before I purchased this I had never seen an example of Severus Alexander as Caesar in 26 years of collecting ancients - I would love to see a sestertius of Severus Alexander as Caesar if you have one please post it. I would love to see a Plautilla or Tranquillina sestertius too - these incredible rarities are just amazing to look at - Anna Faustina is another, although my Severus denarius is not as rare as either of those - still nice to look at, and it was purchased on ebay for all who think it is impossible to find nice coins on ebay:




I hope I have not already posted it on this thread - The next is a Postumus sestertius of which there are supposed to be only a five known examples:



And a Septimius Severus IMP X sestertius - quite lucky that the inscription wasn't fully worn, quite rare, also found on ebay:
