<p>[QUOTE=&quot;David Atherton, post: 2932752, member: 82616&quot;]This coin sat in the seller&#039;s store for many months. Listed at a fair price too. A couple of weeks ago I decided to give it a home. It&#039;s my first brockage, hopefully it won&#039;t be my last.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]712542[/ATTACH]</p><p><b>Vespasian Brockage</b></p><p>AR Denarius, 2.92g</p><p>Rome mint, 69-70 AD</p><p>RIC - .
