I won this coin at auction today, and I think you can all notice that there's something off about the obverse legend :D. I honestly wonder how...
Fantastic additions @Limes ! Right now there's a very rare coin from my wishlist for sale, but I'm buying it in February, so I can't show it right...
Yes, "SEN" still means senior, while I think "FORT" stands for Fortissimus, "The Strongest". Thanks for the really interesting article,...
That's a very fascinating hypothesis, though I don't even know if fourrées of Aureus fractions have ever been recorded. I'll see if I can find any...
Wow, that is indeed something very unusual, since the dies were clearly made for this size, so it can't be an antoninianus that lost weight due to...
That's still very cool and a really nice discovery! It too appears to be missing from RIC V Online...
I have just received in the mail a coin I was very eagerly awaiting: [ATTACH] Claudius II (268-270), Antoninianus, Siscia mint, second officina....
I had forgotten about this contest and I only stumbled upon it again today, so here's my entry. If I do win, I'd like to nominate @Clavdivs in my...

[ATTACH] Diocletian (284-305), Antoninianus, Lugdunum mint, first officina. Obverse: DIOCLETIANVS P F AVG, radiate, draped and cuirassed bust...
The coin arrived today, in an impressively short timeframe: it travelled through four different countries and yet less than 24 hours passed...
That's a fantastic find, @Roman Collector, with a very interesting mystery associated with it! Coins with a dative obverse inscription are also...
After a considerable delay I have finally received the coin, and I think it looks pretty good, despite the deposits on the reverse. [ATTACH] Am I...
My two most recent acquisitions are definitely not that pretty, but if you're collecting the coinage of the emperors of the Crisis of the Third...
Antoniniani from Tripolis have a very distinctive and interesting style; I should definitely get a few for my collection, sooner or later....
I think it's a variation of this one, with the addition of a star in the exergue. I don't own RIC, so I don't know if it's a listed variation or...
It's a coin of Constantine II as caesar, and it should be this one, though I'm not the biggest expert in this time period (photo from Wildwinds):...
This is a series that I'm also trying to complete, but so far I have only acquired the panther: [ATTACH] Gallienus (253-268), Antoninianus, Rome...
