I highly recommend this excellent reference on perhaps the most important Roman Republican collection of our generation. I have the original NAC...
@gogili1977 excellent collection of these types. I noticed the similar patina on the Maximianus and the Constantius. I wonder if these perhaps...
Very impressive "AVG" antoninianus. For some time I've been looking for an example of the earliest coins of Diocletion. Yours is an inspiration.
Beautiful example of an apparently rare combination.
I recently acquired a IOVI CONS CAES follis of Diocletion from Alexandria. A couple of years ago, I acquired a HERCVLI VICTORI follis of...

@Carthago I was hoping you would post this, I almost PM'd you to please do so. Thanks for sharing this amazing coin.
I remember waiting for weeks to hear if my mail bids were successful or not. In some cases auction houses only notified you if you were a winner....
You did well @DonnaML. The reverse on this issue is most frequently weak.
My single win was a very common Lugdunum mint follis of Maximianus Herculeus. I didn't even have this on my list but I've only recently begun to...
I had a number of coins outside of my specialty that I watched. I'm primarily a Roman Republican silver guy but this sale had a significant array...
