<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Al Kowsky, post: 4234262, member: 97383&quot;]Yesterday while going thru e-mails I found an interesting article published by <b>NGC Ancients: Mints of the Roman Empire</b>, see the link below. The article was illustrated by photos from the <b>CNG Archives</b>.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;<a href="https://www.ngccoin.com/news/article/8151/?utm_source=Marketo&amp;utm_medium=Email&amp;utm_campaign=NGC%20eNews%20March%202020&amp;mkt_tok=eyJpIjoiTmpReFpXRmpaVFl3T0RabSIsInQiOiJtOEhpNWlRdDArSlpLdnpMeUNETktkbnVVUGlMbXYxalwvV0lvYVZUYWJGQk8wOXNxVW5SeVJnTFBMMzJtZGIrT0YxRHB2S1pqbSswN3FhN3lNTzdFSTBJcXJmUCtzZGNsVUVIY09KOGZLUnhLWFYrakdoYkM0dG5TM2ZlZnVmYjkifQ%3D%3D" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.ngccoin.com/news/article/8151/?utm_source=Marketo&amp;utm_medium=Email&amp;utm_campaign=NGC%20eNews%20March%202020&amp;mkt_tok=eyJpIjoiTmpReFpXRmpaVFl3T0RabSIsInQiOiJtOEhpNWlRdDArSlpLdnpMeUNETktkbnVVUGlMbXYxalwvV0lvYVZUYWJGQk8wOXNxVW5SeVJnTFBMMzJtZGIrT0YxRHB2S1pqbSswN3FhN3lNTzdFSTBJcXJmUCtzZGNsVUVIY09KOGZLUnhLWFYrakdoYkM0dG5TM2ZlZnVmYjkifQ%3D%3D" rel="nofollow">https://www.ngccoin.com/news/article/8151/?utm_source=Marketo&amp;utm_medium=Email&amp;utm_campaign=NGC eNews March 2020&amp;mkt_tok=eyJpIjoiTmpReFpXRmpaVFl3T0RabSIsInQiOiJtOEhpNWlRdDArSlpLdnpMeUNETktkbnVVUGlMbXYxalwvV0lvYVZUYWJGQk8wOXNxVW5SeVJnTFBMMzJtZGIrT0YxRHB2S1pqbSswN3FhN3lNTzdFSTBJcXJmUCtzZGNsVUVIY09KOGZLUnhLWFYrakdoYkM0dG5TM2ZlZnVmYjkifQ==</a></p><p><br /></p><p>While reading the article I noticed a coin that looked very familiar, #18, a follis of Maxentius struck at the Ostia Mint. Upon closer examination I realized it was a coin I won from a CNG e-auction back in September of 2017 <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie57" alt=":jawdrop:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />!

I took photos of the coin that looked more like the real coin, see photos below.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1082458[/ATTACH] </p><p>[ATTACH=full]1082459[/ATTACH] </p><p>I submitted the two photos to Curtis (<b>Curtisimo the Greatish</b>) for his CT thread: <b>GTCTer 2019 (Guess the Owner of This Coin)</b>, and after editing my photos used this coin as the 1st of 5 coins in the contest <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />.
