<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Orielensis, post: 3921547, member: 96898&quot;]You obviously had a terrific collecting year! All of those are fantastic, but here are my favorites:</p><p><br /></p><p>#7 for eye appeal. The bearded portrait as well as the reverse are exceptional.</p><p>#4 for historical interest. How often do you see a coin minted for Cassius?</p><p>#5 for cool and unusual details. The sword and shield controlmarks make it special. </p><p><br /></p><p>And in comparison I agree that the RRC 408/1 Frugis generally look a bit better struck than the RRC 340/1&#039;s:</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1033811[/ATTACH] </p><p><font size="3">Roman Republic, moneyer: L. Calpurnius Piso Frugi, AR denarius, 90 BC, Rome mint. Obv: laureate head of Apollo r.: control marks. Rev: L PISO FRVGI; horseman galloping r. with palm-branch; control mark CVI. 18mm, 3.77g. Ref: RRC 340/1.</font>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
