<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Gary R. Wilson, post: 4431960, member: 89935&quot;]This denarius of Mark Antony and Octavian was either dropped or crushed in the mail at one time. Originally sold by CNG before being broken I bought it off of eBay at a reduced price. It definitely wasn&#039;t a deal breaker for me considering the coin type and purchase price.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1109555[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>Mark Antony (Triumvir)</p><p>Gens: Antonia</p><p>Moneyer: M.
