Another great addition to your collection.
Great coin and a really interesting writeup

Wonderful additions @ancientcoinguru Here is my latest. Eleanor of Aquitaine (1137-1204) Anglo-Gallic Aquitaine Denier (17.93 mm 0.69 g 12h)...
Brian, I really like that JC denarius.

Thanks @FitzNigel Oh well, since it was not as advertised and attributed...back it goes.
So, I just bought this ugly coin at auction. I always wanted one of these ducats of Venice so I bought it. Besides, it has almost 3.5 g of gold. I...
