Nero/Claudius AR Drachm

Here is the other "big" coin I got last year. But instead of costing $, I just traded my Nero Denarius for it since I have many Nero coins already.

I know Bing has one too.

Great coin. Even trade?

 

Nero denarius and a low value limes denarius I didn't care about.

 

It's always nice to have two emperors on one coin - especially if they are rare!

 

Awesome Drachm Mat! So, you are getting the dead-guys issues now! I thought you avoided them! This one looks great, and no real "cost" capturing it in trade.

 

Nice Mat. I love this coin.

Great coins fellas (congrats) ... sadly, I don't have an example to add

 

A sweet trade. Nice coin Mat!

 

nice specimen and nice picturing

 

Thanks.

 

Looks like not very many members have these?

I think it's a very cool cool coin and one I would like in my collection.

 

yeah cool, i still need a claudius coin...i'd dig a cool nero/claudius combo!

 

It makes it easier to make a 12 Caesars with coins like these too

 

True, but that isn't how I did it.
