Thanks for the write up @Curtisimo, and lovely coin of Elagabal! I think I read somewhere that the bull dingeling theory had been discarded, but...
I find your coin very interesting Donna, I have yet to acquire a type of my own. Congratulations! I'm wondering about this explanation....
Thanks every one for sharing comments and coins! And Marcus aurelius sure is a very interesting emperor and historical character.
[ATTACH] I find Marcus Aurelius' life story somewhat sad. His reign, commencing in 161 AD, started with war, the end of which he would not live...
Congratulations @Orfew! Neat portrait too. I have many favorite reverse types, so its difficult to choose. I think this post calls for one very...
I guess this is true: [ATTACH]
Nice read again, thanks! I own a Titus with elephant reverse denarius, but have posted that too many times already. Thats awesome! You should...
Thanks for your very informative post! I dont have any Alexander types, but would really like to one day.

Great coins again everyone. @Terence Cheesman, interesting story, and lovely coins as always. I had the Actium IMP X type consigned to the recent...
Now that's a great addition. Don't agree with the "OK-grade" though, it looks much nicer! I'd be more than happy to add this (or any aureus for...
Congratulations with your new gap filler. Unfortunately, I mainly have gaps, I don't collect RIC numbers consecutively.
Great addition @Orfew! I like the reverse design. I lack a coin with cows, or bulls, or something in between.
First time I see an emperor arrive in a car! Here's my denarius of Clodius Albinus, as caesar. A denarius of him as emperor is on it's way, but...
I guess we're running on the same clock! Just purchased another year. Back with the green please :-)
thanks for the additional replies. @svessien, little doubt that's Virtus. And @Al Kowsky, little (no phun intended) doubt that's MARS on your...
That's a real beauty! I like how this portrait shows his face a bit longer, and the hair looks combed to the front. [ATTACH]
