<p>[QUOTE="furryfrog02, post: 3563457, member: 41219"]FFIVN and I went to the local coin show today and after seeing a few coins, this one was brought out for us. It was much more than what I've ever paid for any coin but dang it if it wasn't awesome. I gave FFIVN the choice between this one and another that was about a third the price. Turns out he has expensive taste... The dealer gave us a couple freebies though so it numbed the pain a bit haha. </p><p>With this Nerva, we now have a set of the 5 Good Emperors.
