The economy was good and the political situation was stable. This makes for a great variety and amount of coins produced and a large supply of well-circulated and affordable -- yet appealing -- coins for the collector of average means.</p><p><br /></p><p>While I collect the entire Roman area, including provincials, I have a few favorite subcollections -- Antonine women, Nerva, dual-portrait coins, Severan women, the &quot;barracks emperors,&quot; and coins depicting pagan deities (especially Venus and Cybele). Lately, I&#039;ve been focusing on Faustina I, Julia Domna and Julia Mamaea, and Trebonianus Gallus and Volusian.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
