[QUOTE="robinjojo, post: 4844210, member: 110226"]It is in pretty rough condition, and dark. Here's the auction photo: [IMG]https://www.romanumismatics.com/catalogue_images/auction/xlarge/18815.1.38_1.jpg[/IMG] This image is much lighter. My photo is darker because the coin is dark, so I wanted to depict the true level of brightness. Additionally, I am still challenged when photographing bronze coins, especially coins with rough surfaces and varying shades and colors. As they say in many listings, "the coin looks better in the hand". It is true for this coin as well, but, if I conservatively grade the coin, I'd say it is closer to Fine. The price was reasonable, I think, at £37.20. The portrait is quite bold, all things considered. Thanks[/QUOTE]
