[QUOTE="Clavdivs, post: 3063312, member: 93702"]As usual I am here to bring down the overall quality of offerings on this forum with more of my lower end treasures.. and I am really pushing the limits here with 2 coins for $1.98. I put minimum bids on these two (.99 cents each). I was really focused on a couple of other coins that I won and never went back to look at these.

Still investigating this one.. [ATTACH=full]768686[/ATTACH] I think Constans has some sort of ear infection.. have to get that looked at..
