    Hello to everyone. As a very cautious collector I am always very careful about were I am buying my coins, always from trusted sources. In this time I just fell in love with this portrait even if it is sold by an unknown eBay seller. I made my research and it doesn't seem to be any case about him, and his items seem legit except one rediculusly expensive roman ring that seems way off. Ofcourse I will not feel 100% sure if I don't see it in person, which is good as I can always send it back for my money. Before though anything happens I would like to share it with you people and read some opinions. What do you think about it?

    Thank you for the reply! Nice coin, the reverse seems pretty good. The best part of the portrait for me on my coin is the uniform that is so clear to see and that the bust ends quite low.

    Good portrait, typical mushy reverse. I'd buy it for my own collection just for that portrait.
