@Victor_Clark Great cohesive group. I like the Camp Gate Diocletian and the unusual Carthaginian Argentus.
Fascinating theme. Both temporal and geographic.
Great group of coins, all are excellent examples. The Euthydemos II tetradrachm is superb.
Looks right to me, but the weight is often an important factor in determining authenticity. Denarii of Trajan should usually fall between 3.0 and...

Really beautiful examples of the highest quality.
@rrdenarius I've always enjoyed your posts of the Cast AE and scale weights. You've obviously had a great year. It was good to meet you at the...
Congratulations @Victor_Clark . This is a very scarce and sought after type. A few have been on the market recently but not in high grade like...
