Those are mighty fine coins, John. You have excellent taste. I love the Persian, and the A. Flacilla has great reverse detail for the type. Nice haul!
Tell me about it. I probably acquired around 50 Romans this year, and I love them all, for one reason or another. Narrowing a representative group...
I'm enjoying everyone else's threads in this regard, so I thought I'd compose one of my own. I have to break things down into several categories,...

A very attractive coin! I love the relief on the obverse.

Those are some of the best pics of those types I've seen, Doug. Well done.
Well, you may have an unlisted variety. Always a cool find! :)
Those make nice little ashtrays, Steve. Just set them out on the coffee table for your guests.
