<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 2325258, member: 19463"]OK there is a lot not to love about the coin but it is a Caesar portrait (well, sort of anyway). Not knowing how much you paid makes it hard to say if it was a good move or not. Some of us don't have a portrait that good so we can't be too critical, can we? Other than the edge problem, the coin is not bad. Below is my only other Caesar portrait. It really has an 'edge' problem, what? I always liked it because it is the half that shows Caesar (Augustus was on the other half). </p><p>Vienna half dupondius Caesar-Octavian/prow 36BC</p><p><a href="http://www.acsearch.info/search.html?term=vienna+caesar&category=1-2&en=1&de=1&fr=1&it=1&es=1&ot=1&images=1&currency=usd&thesaurus=1&order=0&company=" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.acsearch.info/search.html?term=vienna+caesar&category=1-2&en=1&de=1&fr=1&it=1&es=1&ot=1&images=1&currency=usd&thesaurus=1&order=0&company=" rel="nofollow">http://www.acsearch.info/search.html?term=vienna+caesar&category=1-2&en=1&de=1&fr=1&it=1&es=1&ot=1&images=1&currency=usd&thesaurus=1&order=0&company=</a></p><p>[ATTACH=full]470607[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
