I didnt even notice the headdress in the OP.
Nice, congrats, I believe this is the easiest way you can get a coin with Poppaea's image on a coin too. I have been eyeing these more and more...
The bolded text is the errors. [IMG] Aquilia Severa (221 - 222 A.D.) AR Denarius O: IVLIA AQVILIA SEVERA AVG, draped bust right. R: CONCORDIA,...
I love errors too, especially die clashes :D

Oh you like boogers huh? Well have I got one for you!! Die chip attached to nose! [IMG] Maximinus II Daia (309 - 313 A.D.) Silvered follis...
Ahh...the thinking of modern collectors, lol. Agreed about the die shift being a good thing with moderns. I actually dont mind it on some...
One of my favorite u.s commemoratives. Nice one.
I wouldnt have bought the coin at all cause of it. I would leave it though as mentioned by JW. Never know whats under it. Could open it to bronze...

Its Doug, Randy and some others fault I even got into them:oops:
If I didnt like empresses or clashed dies I would focus on sandy patinas only. They rock!
Not posting mine since I have done so recently, but thats a lovely coin!
