I've seen several MA XXI for sale and am watching two as I type this message. The only reason I haven't purchased one is that two of the coins...
Funny. :D. But the sad thing is that so many of this issue are in not much better condition and lacking the legion identification. Otherwise,...

I agree.
From the image, I say authentic. And I would love to have this coin, if for no other reason than that portrait. Ya gotta love that Roman nose on...
Martin is right. Generally, Martin knows his coins so I rarely, if ever, question what he says. BTW, nice Hadrian @Spaniard
@ominus1 your coin at least has the "SPQR" still showing. Many don't like mine: [ATTACH]
