Are we into U coins?
Many Domitian coins have wonderful portraits and this is no exception. I like the reverse as well. Very nice coin overall.
:facepalm:
Good job PP
Love the obverse John. And a big sister at that!!
If Doug says he would have paid $125, then you have a good deal.
Awesome coins. Congrats. [ATTACH]

I'm unsure as to why, but most references indicate this coin is worth upwards of $150. Perhaps it is because it was struck while he was Caesar...
I hope you are only kidding. Many imitative coins are as collectible if not more so than some official issues. It's just another avenue to explore.
