<p>[QUOTE="Sulla80, post: 3594069, member: 99456"][USER=83845]@Curtisimo[/USER], excellent coins, Mobene photos and an engaging write-up on camp gates. Here are two camp gates to add to the pile. For both coins I like the use of "AVGG" and "CAESS" in the reverse legends as plurals. Also interesting to see the style differences and similarities across mints and rulers in the pile.
