[QUOTE="TypeCoin971793, post: 3621137, member: 78244"]This antoninianus of Philip I arrived today. It happened to be in a slab, which caused peripheral toning on both the obverse and reverse. I really like the look of this coin, which is nicely struck with full luster. The reverse portrays Roma seated holding Victory and a spear. The inscription, which is fairly hard to read, says ROMAE AETERNAE. Attribution is RIC 106. It is in an old ANACS soapbar slab. Here’s the game: Guess what grade they gave. ;) [USER=66]@Conder101[/USER] I have not seen an ancient coin in a soapbar ANACS holder. Before I crack it out, is there any value in the holder itself? I really want to crack it out to get decent pictures of how this coin truly looks. [ATTACH=full]970714[/ATTACH] For those of you who have no sense of fun and don’t care at all, feel free to post anything relevant. :)[/QUOTE]
