A few that I like from Tacitus: I just like how the contrast between the dirt and green patina make the portrait look on this one. [ATTACH] A...
Also you could write out the legends and look into what they mean. The obverse (front) legend is: CONSTANTINVS IVN NC I believe. Do you know the...
You could note the mint city! In this case PLON = London which is cool!
Oh! And how about this little nugget. A Tetricus II as Augustus! Almost certainly a barbarous imitation... but still, finding a TII with an...

Yeah, before posting these newer coins I was undecided. I certainly trust your judgement but wishful thinking was keeping me from accepting the...
