Good on ya. I suppose if I found one as nice as yours for that kind of price, I might just try to get it. On the otherhand, I can buy some...
All is going OK. Life is...., well better than the alternative I suppose, right? Hope all is well with you and Mrs x6.
Of course my favorite is the first coin shown, Constantine I, but I also have a soft spot for the RR coins such as your new Rufus. Congrats on...
I dunno. I would think if I were Emperor of the Roman Empire, and if I had a choice between portraits, I certainly would not pick the "art-deco"...
Ooh, that's a nice one JA. I'm not a big fan of coins from the Siscia mint, but this one is fantastic. Well preserved with great detail.
Here is my other Galerius: [ATTACH] [ATTACH] GALERIUS AE Follis OBVERSE: MAXIMIANVS NOB CAES, laureate head right REVERSE: SACRA MONET AVGG ET...

These images are much better. Now I can have another look see. BTW, here is a Severus Alexander of mine from Nicaea. It's not the same, but...
The images you posted are very dark, so I am having difficulty reading the legends. When you say it's not an exact match, what is different? I...
