[QUOTE="Orfew, post: 4129025, member: 74968"]So as you must have seen I bought that rare left facing bust secular games denarius a few weeks ago. These new additions are nowhere near as rare but they are interesting so I bought them. The first one has some nice honest wear.

I love the second portrait If you want a great portrait of Domitian look for coins struck between 84 and 88 CE. I have some incredible portraits from these years. The engravers were top notch.
