<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Whizb4ng, post: 1805907, member: 54140&quot;]I took the plunge and big in my first Frank S Robinson auction. With that sale he sent out an e-mail for &#039;budget&#039; coins. He already has himself as a repeat customer in my eyes just after his budget sale and how he operates. While there may be no pictures for the coins in his budget sale I am happy with how they turned out. Also this is the fastest I have ever received coins from the states. </p><p><br /></p><p>I must admit I felt like a newborn shark going after a whale. All of the adult sharks knew the drill and were in and out so quickly I am surprised I walked away with anything. I know as soon as the e-mail comes to me next time to read quick and order even quicker!</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;I need some help with the Hadrian since I can&#039;t find an exact match to the type. It is a Sestertius for sure and appears to have the IMP CAES DIVI TRA PARTH F DIVI NER NEP TRAIANO HADRIANO AVG legend however I can&#039;t find a match for the reverse. All of the FORT RED reverses with the obverse legend have the SC below the FORT RED. This one has it between Fortuna&#039;s rudder and the goddess for the S and the C on the other field.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i.imgur.com/75MUbXUl.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>The Gordian III shouldn&#039;t be too hard to ID for me but that will happen a bit later since I don&#039;t quite have time to do it tonight.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i.imgur.com/itKYS1il.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>I am happy with both coins. I don&#039;t think the Gordian will stay will me long though since I already have a better example. I am slowly buying more quality than quantity but every now and then these budget examples slip through![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
