<p>[QUOTE=&quot;DonnaML, post: 8221402, member: 110350&quot;]Interesting &quot;coins.&quot;&nbsp; Coincidentally and without noticing this thread, [USER=75937]@Roman Collector[/USER], I just posted my only limes denarius over in the Follow the Coin Theme Game thread. I bought it because (1) I thought the portrait of Geta was kind of nice, and (2) the genuine prototype of the Geta/Caracalla denarius is scarce and expensive:</p><p><br /></p><p>Caracalla Augustus &amp; Geta Caesar, Billon/AE Limes Denarius, cast[?], unknown mint, 199-200 AD or later. Obv. Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Caracalla right, ANTONINVS AVGVSTVS / Rev. Bareheaded, draped, and cuirassed bust of Geta right, P SEPT GETA CAES PONT. Official Prototype: RIC IV-1 Caracalla 38, RSC III Caracalla and Geta 2. 18 mm., 3.0 g.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://www.cointalk.com/attachments/caracalla-geta-limes-denarius-jpg-version-jpg.1443977/" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
