Wonderful coin!!

My only one Geta's denarius, as a kid:

Ar denarius, RIC IV 18 var, 2.7g, 18mm, Rome mint, as caesar, 200 - 202 A.D.; obverse P SEPT GETA CAES PONT, boy's bare-headed and draped bust right; reverse PRINC IVVENTVTIS. Geta standing left holding baton and scepter, trophy of captured arms behind; probably fire damaged.
It's a scarcer type.

 

Very cool denarius @ro1974 .... with wonderful details!!

I have one like @Multatuli and these two provincial bronzes:

 

That Augusta Traiana is magnificent.

 

Nice Geta @ro1974

Nice @ro1974 ... Wow, another NON-AE coin!

My only Geta:


RI Geta AR Denarius 209-211 CE On horse spearing enemy

 

Thanks all for all picture's and reactions

 

Man, that reverse is SHARP. Bearded Geta is on my list!

 

A young Geta with a Spes reverse:

That Geta Aeternitas is a great coin. I love the style of the figure of Aeternitas. One of my Geta coins minted the same year.

If this emperor taught me anything is that when it comes to imperial politics, ya gotta geta your brother before he geta you.

 

I recently got this one for $16.50 delivered. I have become quite the bottom feeder myself.

 

Yep, you are definitely a confirmed bottom feeder with that sweet Geta. Congrats.
