I think I only have one ancient depicting a club, but what a club this is. This is the reverse of a Commodus sestertius (who else), depicting...
The 'M' on the Noe 28 pictured in the QDB Encyclopedia is clearly not inverted. Other details on your coin appear to match Noe 28, but with the...
Very nice new additions, Randy. I am not sure I would call it 'stuff' though (just kidding!) I very much like your new pictures - the focus...

Very nice set. Obviously a lot of dedication went into putting it together.
Really very interesting coin from a little known (to me at least) ruler. I know very little about this era of (late roman) history, and very much...
