Glad you are feeling better @ambr0zie and sorry you were not well earlier. Those are some nice Commodus denarii you have - he is one of my...
Well I like 'em, @hotwheelsearl - sure they have suffered the ages, but with coins like this I always have a lot of fun trying to attribute them....
Interesting post (and nice coin). Issued around the same time as the OP denarius, I have an as of Hadrian. It features the "chesty" portrait...
That's a nice sestertius, @robinjojo - and an interesting type as well. The randomness of eBay has sent a few budget Philip and family sestertii...

Informative write-up and an interesting series of coins. I like that story about the lone ambassador stopping a war - superpower indeed! As for...
Pretty much my favorite. None of mine are in great shape; my avatar is the worst - when I joined CT, I think it was my only one: [ATTACH] This...
That is an impressive array of countermarks, @Ryro and many others throughout this thread. I poked through my 2021 finds and here are a couple of...
Interesting - I see the Roma example calls it "cuirassed" without mentioning the drapery. This confused me when I was originally researching this...
You are awesome, @Roman Collector - thank you for clarifying this for me. And happy new year! :)
Happy new year, everybody. I am bringing up this old post because I recently obtained one of the type and I found myself getting confused. I...
