    Speaking of Marsic, @Alegandron , here's something "new" I've never shown here. Campana 1, one of the scarcer Social War denarii. All I have are the vendor's pictures.

    @Volodya I REALLY like that coin, Phil! Just plain gorgeous. Thank you for posting! The Social War is a fascinating part of history...

    Nice Marsic you have there, I really love their coins as well and will try and collect as many as I can. Couldn't agree more that the Social war was an incredibly important event for the unification of Italy and one of the foundation stones of the empire one can say.
