It all comes down to wht you enjoy. I happen to also be a big fan of Halo (my xbox live gamertag is also Ardatirion :cool:)
In case you're wondering - the chained alligator on the reverse symbolizes Octavian's victory over Marc Antony at the Battle of Actium.
I gave up for a five or six years during and before high school, and I missed out on SO many good deals. For example, remember when gold was only...
Fake to me, as well. Be sure that if you take it to a dealer, you take it to a dealer who specializes in ancient coins.
Who can't love this coin? Sure, its not the perfect specimen, but its a start. (especially for $88!) Augustus and Agrippa AE provincial dupondius...

You're really taking this hoarding thing to a new level!

I disagree with the Krause prices, I think that one could push higher than $30. Like I said, they're very poorly struck - an MS piece could look...
