[QUOTE="Choucas, post: 7672588, member: 100117"]Nice thread! The first sestertius of yours is great. Postumus did strike some denarii but all of them are very rare, even if there are a few dozen different reverses. They were not meant to be actual circulation coinage but more like special coins given to his soldiers.
