    What a beautiful presentation, DR! It is impossible to pick favorites but if forced to, I'd go with the Vespasian because that's a reverse I don't remember seeing a hundred times :).

    Just kidding of course, you picked up some nice coins there.

    And, as always, A+ on presentation!

    Great lot. I'm drawn to the Domitian myself.

    Thank you @Jay GT4 ! The most amazing thing to me about these portraits is that the dies were created by hand by artists without the help of photography, computers, or reading glasses—LOL

    Thank you, @Roman Collector ! Your Faustina posts have inspired me to appreciate the awesome and too often overlooked royal women of Rome.

    Everyone here at CT would recognize your selection at first glance, due to your excellent and skilled displaying of them @Deacon Ray !

    Beautiful coins to boot. The reverse on your Vespasian denarius is reminiscent of a Julius Caesar's one
