    Hello everyone from France,

    It's my first time with a forum in English, and as i'm not very good in this language, so i hope everything will be ok.

    I collect Roman coins since few years, but i don't have a lot.

    Here the coins in chronological ordre.

    The older is also the much rarer of all of them.

    Denarius
    GALBA IMPER / VIRTVS
    3,4 gr.
    Very rare coin from the civil war. Maybe mint in Tarraco.

    Hello David Atherton,

    Yes, that's it, i prefer quality (and rarity when both are possible) than quantity.
    Thanks !
