Nice pick-up at a decent price!
Well, what a great late arrival! A nice way to close out the year. You know, Suetonius believed the number 12 was adequate for a list. Since we...
This 'second string' list just goes to show you had a very good year. Wow.
Excellent 'runners-up'! That Edward III is my favourite among the group.
A lovely set of coins! The JC and Vespasian are my favourites.
That Civil War denarius is superb! You had a very good year.

The new portrait is a major improvement!
Nice eclectic mix of coins. That Caracalla is indeed pretty special!
The OP coin has a really nice portrait in good 'Rome' style. Here's one from the provincial 'o' mint. [ATTACH] Domitian Caesar AR Denarius,...
