According to Domitian, Minerva offered similar assurance. In this case, he was the heir to his brother. [ATTACH] I missed this one believing...
I like #10 best. In addition to the symbols (at least 20? Is mine a lagobolos or carnyx?) These come with a series of letters. I don't have...
I believe the best add I can offer is the Stratonicaea with Geta erased. These are common. It appears that this city took Caracalla's damnatio...

The wonderful thing about ancients is that they made enough we can each have them 'our way'. I hate coins like these stripped down to reveal...
